How did the public know what kind of play was going to be shown at the globe theatre?
There is a story that they flew different coloured flags to say what kind of play it was. However, the fact is that plays did not and do not fall so easily into those categories. As Polonius says, it could be "tragedy, comedy, history, pastoral, pastoral-comical, historical-pastoral, tragical-historical, tragical-comical-historical-pastoral". What colour flag would they fly for "tragical-comical-historical-pastoral"?
Anyway, nobody seems to know where this coloured flag idea comes from. It may be something someone thought up in the 19th century.
