Globe Theatre diagrams
And illustrations...
My son had to create a diagram of the Globe Theater for a school project and had a surprisingly hard time finding inspiration online. Ultimately he created this labeled diagram with bits & pieces of info he gathered. Came out pretty nice!

- I have toured the modern Globe Theatre and attended a performance as a groundling. It was a wonderful experience, I was a student at LAMDA (London Academy of Music and Dramatic Arts) at the time. I also had the opportunity to attend Shakespearean performances in Stratford at the Swan and to participate in master classes with the RSC. It was a dream of a lifetime. To walk down the isle of the church were Shakespeare was baptized, married and now lies buried was unimaginable.
