At Theatres. Shakespeare's plays were performed at The Globe, The Theatre, The Curtain and probably The Rose.
The Globe Theatre signaled the type of play being performed through the use of flags. A black flag indicated a tragedy, a white flag represented a comedy, and a red flag signified a history play.
