Shakespeare's Wooden O was the Globe Theatre in London in which he had a financial interest. It was rebuilt after being accidentally burnt down (in 1613) but was then closed down by the Puritans in 1642 and demolished two years later to build housing.

Who built the the wooden o?
"The wooden O" is a phrase from Shakespeare's play Henry V, as follows "Who could cram within this wooden O the very casques that did affright the air at Agincourt?" The phrase means a theatre, any theatre, not a specific one. It refers to whatever theatre the play is being played in.When the play Henry V was first performed, it was performed at a theatre called The Curtain playhouse. The Curtain is believed to have been built at the expense of James Burbage. It is not known who the contractor was who did the actual building. It may have been Peter Street, who afterward was the builder of a number of other playhouses including the Globe and Fortune. The Curtain (like most of the outdoor theatres of the time), was built out of wood roughly in the shape of the letter O, which explains why theatres might be described as a "wooden O"
