The Globe Theater remains somewhat of a mystery as no historically accurate descriptions or pictures remain. The theater had open air seating, but some parts including the stage were covered by roof. Many of the supporting timbers were taken from The Theater in Shoreditch. Based on the time period, the roof was likely clay or slate, though due to the building being put up so quickly, it could also have been thatch or wood shingles.

An actor holds his movement or next line until the laugh from the audience evoked by the previous moment subsides. Holding for laughs is important in live comedy as the next line will be lost in the laughter. That is, the audience will not hear the line. It is also important to give the audience time to laugh. If actors routinely "step on laughs" the audience will stop laughing for fear of missing something. Such an audience doesn't have nearly as much fun.

The biggest and fanciest theatre was the Fortune, built shortly after the Globe. It was North of London, while the Globe was south of the City in the Bourough of Southwark. Other Southwark Theatres at that time included the Swan, the Hope and the Rose.

The same guys who made the first one. It was built almost immediately after the fire destroyed the first Globe.

The Globe Theatre Groundlings stood in the Yard, or pit, to watch the plays being performed. This was the cheapest part of the theatre, there were no seats and the entrance price was 1d which was equivalent to about 10% of a day's wages. The members of the audience who stood in the pit were often referred to as 'Groundlings'. However, due to the hot summer days they were also referred to as 'Stinkards' - for obvious reasons. Many of the yard audiences were apprentices who worked in London. The Globe would have particularly attracted these young people and the were many complaints of apprentices avoiding work in order to go to the theatre - these apprentices would most certainly have been 'Groundlings'. The Groundlings would have watched the plays from the cramped conditions of the 'Yard' or 'Pit' which held up to 500 people. However, the average Elizabethans were much smaller than today's modern man - reducing our perception of the cramped area. Beneath their feet were the cobblestones covered with discarded nutshells and other garbage. Not a comfortable place to watch plays for up to three hours - the groundlings must have really loved the plays shown at the Globe.

I assume for the very reason that illumination would have been nigh impossible, expensive and moreover dangerous. People would have had very different working days so afternoon performances or later in the summer period would to my mind have coincided with a type of siesta period. people may have returned to work afterwards or gone home. It would be curious to know what were the hours kept by public houses at this time

No, the terms are not synonymous. In the phrase "Elizabethan theatre" the word "theatre" does not always imply a building, but more often the style, customs, practises, plays, playwrights and actors which defined the theatre community in London during the reign of Elizabeth I (1558-1603). It can also mean a building built during that period specifically as a venue for play performance--what was at that time called a playhouse. The Globe Theatre was only one (although the most famous one) of these Elizabethan playhouses. Others included the Rose, the Swan, the Curtain, the Fortune and the Red Bull.

It isn't unreasonably expensive. A lot depends where you sit. Compared to other forms of entertainment it is not out of line.

The letter "B" on a globe typically represents the location of a specific place, city, or geographical feature. The exact meaning can vary depending on the context of the map or globe being used. Often, globes use letters or symbols to denote significant landmarks or points of interest. To understand what "B" specifically represents, one would need to refer to the accompanying legend or key that explains the symbols used.

The Globe Theatre was built in 1599 by the Lord Chamberlain's Men, a playing company that included William Shakespeare. It was constructed to provide a permanent venue for the company’s performances, enhancing their ability to attract audiences and showcase their work. The theater's circular design allowed for a larger audience capacity and improved acoustics, making it a significant cultural landmark in Elizabethan England. The Globe also symbolized the rise of professional theater during this period.

In the Globe Theatre, the audience exhibited lively and interactive behavior, often reacting vocally to performances. Groundlings—those who stood in the pit—were particularly boisterous, expressing their enjoyment or displeasure through laughter, cheers, and even heckling. Wealthier patrons in the seated areas would also engage, but with a bit more decorum. Overall, the atmosphere was dynamic, with the audience playing an active role in the theatrical experience.

Prefabrication, or pre-fab, refers to the practice of assembling building components in a factory or off-site before transporting them to the final location for installation. In the context of reconstructing the Globe Theatre, it means that parts of the structure were manufactured in advance to ensure precision and efficiency, allowing for quicker assembly on-site. This method can enhance quality control and reduce construction time.
