Shakespeare's Globe, बैंकसाइड

Shakespeare's Globe थेम्स नदी के दक्षिणी तट पर बैंकसाइड में स्थित है — यह उस खुले आसमान वाले नाट्यगृह का एक विश्वसनीय पुनर्निर्माण है जहाँ शेक्सपियर की अनेक महान रचनाओं का पहली बार मंचन हुआ था। आज यह दुनिया भर के दर्शकों को आकर्षित करता है और एक अनूठा तल्लीन करने वाला नाट्य अनुभव प्रदान करता है, जहाँ ग्राउंडलिंग दर्शक आँगन में खड़े होकर नाटक देखते हैं — ठीक वैसे ही जैसे एलिज़ाबेथन युग की भीड़ किया करती थी। चाहे आप पहली बार आने वाले दर्शक हों या अनुभवी थिएटरप्रेमी, Globe में एक शाम या दोपहर बिताना लंदन में किसी भी अन्य अनुभव से बिल्कुल अलग है।

History

The original Globe Theatre was built in 1599 by the playing company to which William Shakespeare belonged, using timber salvaged from an earlier Shoreditch playhouse. It stood on Bankside until it was destroyed by fire in 1613, was rebuilt shortly after, and was eventually demolished in 1644. The site lay largely forgotten for centuries until the twentieth century brought renewed interest in recovering this piece of theatrical history.

The reconstruction of the Globe was the lifelong passion of American actor and director Sam Wanamaker, who arrived in London in the late 1940s and was struck by the absence of any meaningful memorial to Shakespeare near the site of the original theatre. After decades of campaigning, fundraising and planning, construction of the new Globe began in the 1980s using traditional materials and Elizabethan building techniques. The venue opened to the public in the mid 1990s, though it was not fully complete until 1997.

Since opening, the Globe has staged a vast range of productions spanning Shakespeare's complete canon as well as works by his contemporaries and new writing. It has become as important as a centre for research, education and debate about early modern theatre as it is a working playhouse, welcoming scholars, students and audiences in equal measure.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between gallery seating and standing in the yard?

<p>Gallery seats are covered tiered benches arranged in three levels around the stage, offering protection from rain and a clear sightline. Standing in the yard as a groundling places you at stage level, very close to the performers, for a more immersive and lively experience. Yard tickets are generally less expensive, though there are no seats and you will be on your feet for the full duration of the performance.</p>

Is the Globe Theatre open all year round?

<p>The main outdoor Globe stage hosts its season typically from late spring through to autumn, as performances are open to the elements. During the winter months, the indoor <strong>Sam Wanamaker Playhouse</strong> stages its own season of productions by candlelight, so there is almost always something to see at the venue across the year.</p>

Where exactly is Shakespeare's Globe located?

<p>The theatre sits on <strong>New Globe Walk, Bankside, SE1 9UF</strong>, on the south bank of the River Thames. It is close to the Tate Modern and the Millennium Bridge, and the riverside walk makes it easy to approach on foot from several directions. The nearest Underground stations are London Bridge and Southwark.</p>

Can I visit Shakespeare's Globe even if I am not seeing a show?

<p>Yes. The Globe offers guided tours of the theatre throughout much of the year, giving visitors the chance to step inside the playhouse, learn about its construction and history, and explore the on-site exhibition dedicated to Shakespeare and the story of the original Globe. It is a rewarding experience even for those not attending a performance.</p>

What should I wear or bring to an open-air performance?

<p>London weather is unpredictable, so layers and a waterproof jacket are strongly advisable even in summer. If you plan to stand in the yard, comfortable flat shoes are a must as you will be on your feet for the full show. Cushions can be hired at the venue for gallery bench seating, and many visitors choose to bring their own.</p>
