Visit Shakespeare's Globe Theatre, one of the most famous theatres in the world. You'll explore every corner of the theatre which hosted some of William Shakespeare's most important plays.
Shakespeare's Globe Theatre Tour
Shakespeare's Globe Theatre is a perfect replica of the original playhouse constructed in 1599. The theatre is one of the most famous in the world because it was here the renowned Elizabethan playwright, William Shakespeare premiered his masterworks.
You'll be accompanied by a guide with expert knowledge about the British poet and playwright, as you're lead through a 45 minute guided tour around all of the Globe's facilities. You'll also learn more about the history of the Globe, including the tragic fire which destroyed the original building and the reasons for later constructing two more theatres.
Without a doubt, the undisputed protagonist of the tour will be Shakespeare himself. We'll delve into his life, his works and performances carried out on this stage. This will include an exhibition dedicated to the writer and the chance to see up close the outfits and musical instruments used for events at the Globe Theatre.
