What are the differences between the New Globe Theatre and the Old Globe Theatre?
Well the new globe has lights for night performances and a roof to avoid rain and other unfortunate weather...... I hope it helps XD
How are the newly reconstructed Globe performances different from modern stage productions?
The more theatres you see, the more you realize that there is no such thing as a "normal theatre". Your idea of what a "normal theatre" is comes only from your limited experience. There are some features of the Globe Theatre in London (more properly called Shakespeare's Globe Theatre, opened in 1997). It is a replica of a sixteenth-century theatre, which makes it unusual but not unique. There are a number of others. It is an open-air theatre, which is also unusual, but such theatres also exist in, for example, Central Park in New York City. It is certainly a theatre visited by many tourists but the same can be said for any well-known theatre in the world.

Why was the globe theater called the globe theater?
It was not called the Globe Theatre because it is shaped like a globe, since it was not that shape. It was in fact the same shape as the theatres called The Theatre, The Curtain, The Rose, The Swan and The Hope. The reason it was called the Globe is because the audience could see "all the world" on the stage there. Shakespeare frequently compared the world to a stage.The GlobeThe metaphor of the theater as a whole world in itself runs throughout Shakespeare. 'The Globe' was probably a reference to the fact that the actors create a world for the audience. The globe would hang a flag up when a play was on. The globe was very noisy even when a play was on, there were often riots and fights.It is a reference to the Shakespeare quote, "All the World's a Stage…"

Which Shakespeare play was being performed at the time the globe theatre burnt down?
Henry VIII :D hope that helped you!
Who burned down the gobe thearter?
No-one burnt the Globe theatre down, sparks (from a cannon used in a performance of King Henry VIII) collided with the thatched roof of the Globe. The result was the Globe burning down in under 2 hours. No-one died and there were no major injuries. The Globe theatre was rebuilt in less than a year. Hope this helped!
What was the name of a London theatre used during the life of Shakespeare?
The Rose, The Swan, The Hope, The Fortune, The Theatre, The Curtain, Newington Butts, and the Blackfriars, take your pick. Shakespeare performed at the Theatre, The Curtain, The Globe, the Blackfriars and possibly the Rose.
What was another name for the globe theater?
Shakespeare described his theatre as "the wooden "O". (letter o) in the Chorus to Henry V. But he was probably talking about the Curtain theatre when he wrote those lines. It didn't matter anyway because most of the outdoor theatres were shaped like doughnuts including the Globe, Curtain, Theatre, Rose, Hope, and Swan. So Shakespeare's phrase isn't necessarily about the Globe at all and certainly never became a nickname for the Globe.
What kinds of people went to the Globe theatre?
All sorts groundling stinkards picker-pockets etc...hope this helps :-)

The Globe Theatre was rebuilt on 1614 June in the same site after the original one had burnt down on 1613 June 29 due to a cannon ball thrown while performing one of Shakespeare's plays- Henry Vlll. the rebuilt Globe Theatre was eventually closed down in 1642. In 1997, a modern reconstruction of the Globe named "Shakespeare's Globe" opened approximately 750 feet (230 m) from the site of the original theatre.
