Globe Theatre

We do not know for sure. However, there is a pamphlet called Greene's Groatsworth of Wit which was published September 20, 1592 which seems to refer to a line in Shakespeare's Henry VI Part III. Since that play was not published until later, the line must have become famous from a performance. This suggests that this play had already been performed and was well-known before 1592. Greene's sneering remarks about Shakespeare being an "upstart crow", crow being slang for actor, suggest that he was better known as an actor at that time, so Henry VI Part III may have been the first play of Shakespeare's to be performed and was certainly one of the first. (It actually may have been written and performed before Parts One and Two. Its title when first published was "The True Tragedie of Richard Duke of Yorke and the Good King Henry the Sixt" for which the shorter but more boring title of "The Third Part of Henry Sixth" was substituted in the First Folio. Part II was published first, though)

Unfortunately our records as to when things were published is better than those as to when things were performed. We only know for sure performance dates based on 1. the records of the fire that destroyed the first Globe, fixing a performance of Henry VIII and 2. diary entries of people who attended the plays. We can fix an early performance of Julius Caesar in this way.

The original Globe Playhouse, which was built in 1599 by Peter Street and largely financed by Richard and Cuthbert Burbage, burned to the ground on June 29, 1613 during a performance of Shakespeare's play All is True, otherwise known as Henry VIII, when the wadding from a cannon fired off as a sound effect landed on the thatched roof of the theatre.

Half of the globe is known as a hemisphere.

Shakespeare never owned a theatre outright. He was always a partner, although his percentage changed as the other partners bought in and out. He first invested in the Globe Theatre when it was built out of materials from the Theatre in 1599.

Shakespeare did not build any theatres. He was not a builder. He did not arrange for any theatres to be built either. When his friends Richard and Cuthbert Burbage found that there were legal problems with using the theatre (called The Theatre) which their father had left them in his will, they had it dismantled and moved the main timbers south of the River Thames, where they were handed over to the builder Peter Street. However, the new theatre needed plaster and flooring and a number of other things which could not be brought from the old theatre, and the Burbages did not have enough to pay. They turned to the actors in their company and offered them shares in the profits of the theatre in exchange for an investment. Four members of the company stepped up to the bar with money and got a share in the theatre, which was called the Globe Theatre, as a result. Shakespeare's share was 12.5%.

When the Burbages refurbished their indoor theatre the Blackfriars Shakespeare bought into that as well.

It is a speech by one orator, such as an address by a politician to a crowd of people. It's contemporary meaning is a dialogue given by a comedian to an audience. Such as what Jay Leno or Conan O'Brien would do at the start of their live shows.

There are two different types of lines: lines of latitude and lines of longitude (also called meridians). The lines of latitude go around the globe horizontally. The center line is the Equator. Lines of longitude go around the globe vertically. The center one is called the Prime Meridian. These different lines together form a grid on a globe that's used to find locations of Earth's surface. The Equator and the Prime Meridian also divide the Earth into Northern, Southern, Eastern, and Western hemispheres.

The advantages of globe are;

1) show us shape and size of continents and countries

2) Gives directions and distances without distortion

3) open use to plan long distance sea and air routes, called the great circle.

4) They are also use to determine the routes to satellites

No, he did not. The Globe Theatre was a building. Nobody could join it. All you could do was act in it. And in any case it did not exist in 1594; it was built five years later.

What Shakespeare joined in 1594 (sort of, since he was actually a founding partner) was the acting company called the Lord Chamberlain's Men. This group of actors performed in all kinds of different theatres including the Curtain and the Theatre and, at a later date, the Globe Theatre.

William Shakespeare's theatre company was The Chamberlain's Men, named after The Lord Chamberlain, an official responsible for royal and public entertainment.

In 1603, when Queen Elizabeth I died and King James I became king, the new king became their patron and the name was changed to The King's Men.

Shakespeare stayed with the Chamberlain's men (later King's men) throughout the last part of his career as an actor, playwright and administrator. Other companies he had worked with to perform his plays include the Earl of Derby's, The Earl of Pembroke's and the Earl of Sussex' men.

Before Lord Hunsdon became Lord Chamberlain, and for a brief period after his death, before his son also became Lord Chamberlain, they were Lord Hunsdon's Men.

The Globe Theatre was built in 1599.
The theatre called Shakespeare's Globe was opened in 1997. The one Shakespeare acted in should never be called Shakespeare's Globe or William Shakespeare's Globe since he didn't own it and had nothing to do with its construction. For the sake of clarity, that theatre should be called The Globe Playhouse or The First Globe.

In 1567 the first purpose-built theatre in England was built. Before that time, acting companies had to go on tour and play on such makeshift stages as might be available, in rich people's houses, town halls and innyards. Innyard theatres, which continued in operation well into the 1600s, were the model for the early playhouses.

Most acting companies continued to play in such makeshift spaces even after the purpose-built theatres were built because there were many more companies than theatres. Even nowadays, acting companies on tour will play anywhere they can set up. That tradition is far from dead.

Most notable for the differences from current theatre, Elizabethan theatre nevertheless shares with the modern theatre a reliance on patrons, an embracing or rebellion against formulaic approaches to scripts - sometimes derived from other cultures, the idea of artist as celebrity, travelling plays, costumes and buildings as modes of spectacle, and the idea of a repertory company.

Poor people. As in "And didst thou not, when was gone down stairs, desire me to be no more so familiarity such poor people," from Henry IV Part II or "As you wish Christian peace to souls departed, Stand these poor people's friend, and urge the king To do me this last right." from Henry VIII or "Look, how the world's poor people are amazed At apparitions, signs and prodigies" from Venus and Adonis.

yes they do, there is many art middle schools and high schools that study theatrical plays and such

Two things: electric lighting and actresses, both of which we now have, neither of which the Elizabethans had.
