How is the globe theatre laid out?
It is a twenty-sided polygon with three tiers of roofed galleries overlooking an open area. The stage comes out halfway into the yard, open to the sunlight. There is a roof over the rear half of the stage, with entrance doors on either side, and a drapery called an arras between them. As with the auditorium, there are second and third levels of the stage that are permanent fixtures of the playhouse. The area offstage, behind the exit doors is called the 'Tiring House (attiring house). There are trap doors in the floor of he stage, and in the loft above the stage, covered by the roof. On the second level, above the entrances are windows, and there is an upper level terrace between them to allow scenes to take place up there as well. It is a kind of permanent unit set built into the architecture of the theater itself.
Where did the term ''upstage'' and ''downstage'' came from?
Today, theaters are built so that the stage is a level surface with the audience on an incline for better visibility. In the past, however, the audience was on level ground and the stage was on an incline with the edge of the stage closer to the audience being shorter than the back edge of the stage. "Upstage" was so called because actors literally had to walk up to move to that area of the stage. Likewise, "downstage" was so called because actors literally walked down to move to that area of the stage.
