Shakespeare's Globe

CultureVisit: ~120 minFrom €15

Shakespeare's Globe is a faithful reconstruction of an open-air Elizabethan theatre, built of English oak with a stage that projects into a circular yard where visitors can watch performances of Shakespeare's plays and works by other playwrights. The complex includes the Sam Wanamaker Playhouse, a candlelit indoor theatre that recreates the atmosphere of Jacobean-era indoor theatres, and the Sackler Studios, dedicated to educational and rehearsal activities. Visitors can take guided tours exploring the theatre's history and architecture, walk across the stage and backstage areas, and take part in workshops and interactive activities for families and young people. The theatre stands on the south bank of the River Thames, in Bankside, about 230 metres from the original site, and has a shop, restaurant and visitor centre within the grounds.
