Pit seats at the Globe Theatre, known as the "yard," typically cost a penny during the time of Shakespeare. This affordable price allowed the lower-class audience, referred to as "groundlings," to stand and watch performances up close. The cost of a ticket could vary slightly depending on the play and the day, but a penny was the standard rate for general admission to the pit.

At the Old Globe Theatre, balcony seats typically cost around six pence, which was a more affordable option compared to the higher-priced seats in the more prestigious areas. This pricing made the theatre accessible to a broader audience, allowing a mix of social classes to enjoy performances. The cost reflected the seating's location and view, with balcony seats offering a less direct experience of the stage compared to the front rows.
Two or three pence depending on the seat. If you only had a penny, you could see the play, but you didn't get a seat.
