What was the balcony or gallery above and behind the stage in the globe used for?

The balcony or gallery above and behind the stage in the Globe Theatre served multiple purposes. It provided a space for musicians and additional performers, enhancing the theatrical experience with live music during plays. Additionally, it offered seating for wealthier audience members who could afford a better view of the performance, creating a tiered social structure within the theatre. This design also contributed to the acoustics, helping to project the actors' voices.


At the theatre the lady behind you poem summary?

How did theater goers enter the theater?

In Greek times, the Priests sat in the center section nearest the Orchestra (dance circle), the festival judges, sat behind them, and the citizens sat according to their families; alien residents sat behind the citizens, and the slaves sat farthest from the stage. In Rome, the wealthiest citizens parked their sedan chairs in the Orchestra, since it was no longer used for choral dancing, and the prices fell as the distance from the stage increased. In Elizabethan Theater, patrons paid a penny for general admission to stand in the yard around the stage, for a few pennies more, they could climb the stairs to sit in the gallery seats.
