For it's shape--it looks like a globe without a top? No, ALL the theatres then looked like that. It's probably got to do with the idea that the actors could show you anything or anywhere in the world, so the theatre was like a mini-cosmos.

Or maybe they didn't put that much thought into it. Why was the Swan theatre called the Swan?

The motto on the sign of the Globe was the quote from Shakespeare, "All the Word's a Stage."
