Scenery in the Globe Theatre was sparse, if not nonexistent, for two reasons. First, with the thrust stage, there was noplace to put any kind of fancy sets. And second, the plays changed scene frequently, far too frequently to change any elaborate sets (unless, like the Victorians, you would pay to watch an evening of stage hands changing sets). As a result, set props were brought on only when absolutely necessary, and for the rest the audience could use its imagination. For example, in As You Like It, where Orlando posts poetry on trees in the forest, the stage pillars would stand in for the trees. The same balcony on which Juliet appeared was also the mast of the ship in the first scene of The Tempest and the walls of Harfleur in Henry V. It didn't look any different in any of those plays; nothing was done to the balcony to make it look more like a bedroom balcony or city walls or a ship.
