The stage is used for the actors to walk on while they are acting, in the Globe and any other theatre that ever existed.
The shape of the Globe Theatre's stage is 'circular'.
There were only two stages in the Globe Theater. They were the inner stage and the outer stage. The outer stage projected into the courtyard where actors were actively performing. The inner stage was where actors waited for their part to begin.
Actors at the Globe Theatre entered and exited the stage through two main doors at the rear, known as the "heavens," which led to the backstage area. They often used the trapdoor in the stage floor for dramatic entrances or exits, particularly for supernatural characters. Additionally, actors could move around the stage and interact with the audience, as the Globe's design allowed for close engagement between performers and spectators. This dynamic setup enhanced the immersive theatrical experience of the time.
The globe theatre had a lively almost violent atmosphere, the pit (the bottom of the stage) was filled with prostitutes or gamblers and they would boo actors off stage or grab at their ankles often fights broke out so it was very disrupting for actors L
