Globe TheaterIt burned down during a performance when a cannon filled with flaming rags was fired and the projection of the barrel was out of line so the thatched roof was set ablaze. This happened at a performance of Shakespeare's Henry VIII on June 29, 1613.

An answer from someone who does not know the answer: "Shakespeare's theatre burnt down after sparks flew off onto the thatched roof for the celebration of the arrival of Queen Elizabeth I coming to see Romeo and Juliet play. I foun this out in my enlish lesson yesterday" Queen Elizabeth had been dead for 10 years before the fire, the play was not Romeo and Juliet, and Shakespeare did not own the Globe Theatre.
