Globe Theatre

The Globe Theatre was not closed in 1592 because it wasn't built until 1599. There were plague outbreaks in 1603 and 1608 which caused the theatres to close. This plague was pneumonic plague, not bubonic as is often incorrectly stated.

There are no drawings that exist today that completely shows the original Globe Theater's design. However, from ruins and drawings of other theaters of the time, the Globe Theater is probably a building that has from 14 to 24 sides. It had one main entrance that had a picture of Hercules holding Earth drawn over it. Near the picture was the Globe's motto in Latin, which translated to," The world is a playhouse," similar to the soliloquy from As You Like It, one of Shakespeare's comedies. Inside, there was a large yard where groundlings, common people who paid one pence to get inside stood to watch the play. The stage was large and could fit many actors. It was also raised a few feet above the ground, where stagehands below could make sound effects without being seen. This area was also called "Hell."

They were built out of carved stone they didn't cost that much

The stages of Elizabethan and Jacobean playhouses were thrust stages, with the audience on three sides and a wall on the fourth. The audiences sat at two or three levels. In line with the second level, there was a balcony on the back wall. In some theatres, like the Rose, it covered the width of the wall, whereas in others, like the Swan or Globe, it could really only hold four or five people. This balcony or upper stage was used when it was desired to show that part of the action was higher up, at an upstairs window (as in Romeo and Juliet) or on city walls (as in Henry V and many history plays where cities are being besieged).

you would have been expected to behave silent and if you werent you would be kicked out and they would have took all your money/shillings. Actually, no. The audiences were more rowdy than that, though apparently not as rowdy as they were at other theatres like the Fortune or the Red Bull, known for having brawls between audience members, or when there was a riot at the Swan and the theatre was seriously damaged, both physically and in reputation.

The Globe Theater used flags as a way of communicating information about the plays of the day. If the flag was raised it indicated a performance was scheduled. If it wasn't raised, the people knew the performance had been canceled. Colored flags also indicated the type of play that would be performed.

It means "later". When the Nurse calls Juliet back from the balcony in Romeo and Juliet 2,2, Juliet replies "Anon, good nurse.", meaning "In a minute!".

Shakespeare's Globe Theatre is a reconstructed Elizabethan playhouse located in London, characterized by its circular shape and thatched roof. The structure features an open courtyard surrounded by three tiers of seating, with a stage that juts out into the audience. The theater is built primarily of wood and resembles the original Globe, which was known for its vibrant atmosphere and intimate connection between actors and spectators. The design emphasizes natural lighting and acoustics, typical of the period's theatrical architecture.

No. He was a co-owner.

It depended on where you sat, as I recall from English class there was a place in the very front of the theatre where the poor "street-people" would pay next to nothing to go and watch the plays. Different areas in the theatre cost more than others so if your doing this for an assignment I would mention that they differ from dirt cheap to moderately expensive.

The Gorundlings paid one penny general admission to stand in the pit around the stage. (They were also called Penny Standers.) Seats in the Gallery cost three pence extra. Nobility watched in Lords Rooms, the Elizabethan equivalent of a skybox, for six pence extra.
