How does the design of the Globe Theatre compare with the design of other theaters in the London area?

We don't know much about the internal design of the Globe Theatre: the internal arrangement of the modern Globe in London is copied from an illustration of the Swan theatre (roughly contemporary with the Globe). Since we know very little about the internal design of any Sixteenth Century London theatre (except the Swan) - your question is really unanswerable.


Why was the globe theater different from other theaters?

The Globe Theatre was distinct from other theaters of its time due to its circular design, which allowed for a more immersive experience for the audience. Unlike traditional indoor theaters, the Globe was open-air, facilitating natural lighting and providing a connection to the outside environment. Additionally, it featured a thrust stage that extended into the audience, promoting interaction between actors and spectators. This unique setup contributed to its reputation as a vibrant venue for popular performances, particularly those of Shakespeare.

What was the difference between ancient greece theaters and the Globe Theatre?

Ancient Greek theaters were usually amphitheaters in the Classical sense, which means they had a semicircle of stadium seating. The Globe is also a form of amphitheater, but it has three rows of seating set on top of each other with standing room in front of the stage. Aside from that, Ancient Greek theaters are generally found in Greece and date from 2-3 thousand years ago, and the Globe is in London and (ignoring the rebuilding) is roughly 400 years old.
