At the Globe Theatre they hung flags to represent what type of play it was. Black represented Tragedy. White was hung for a humorous play.
the flag went up
because everyone could see what was going on. if it was a whole load of rows, no one at the back would be able to see.
Going to the Globe theatre was loads of fun. It was like going to the movies with your friends. It was like a get together. One bad thing was if the actors weren't good people could throw trash and tomatoes at them.
The more theatres you see, the more you realize that there is no such thing as a "normal theatre". Your idea of what a "normal theatre" is comes only from your limited experience. There are some features of the Globe Theatre in London (more properly called Shakespeare's Globe Theatre, opened in 1997). It is a replica of a sixteenth-century theatre, which makes it unusual but not unique. There are a number of others. It is an open-air theatre, which is also unusual, but such theatres also exist in, for example, Central Park in New York City. It is certainly a theatre visited by many tourists but the same can be said for any well-known theatre in the world.

by people going to plays
Yes there are still plays going on
at the globe theatre opposite the river thames. apparently the globe had a flag on the top of it so that the other people on the other side of the thames new there was going to be a play performed at the globe theatre.
You could tell because peasants would post sheets with info and the people in the play would tell everyone
It was in a shape so Everyone in that theatre could see and hear everything that was going on. Also that it burned down on June 29, 1613 while praforming Henry Vlll
The people saw falgs haging from the theater.
For entertainment. Movies weren't around in those days soinstead of going to the cinemas like we do, they went to the theatre :)
it is different to today by: they were outside (globe ect.) the were only preformed in the day (no stage lights) large numbers of audience stood to watch and some men would pay to sit on the stage (see and be seen) hope i helped!
