The reconstructed Shakespeare’s Globe (shakespearesglobe.com) stands as a living homage to William Shakespeare’s legacy. You’ll find more than Shakespearean classics like Macbeth being performed in the open-air theater; diverse productions also have a home here.
With no roof, events will go ahead in all weather conditions, so dress accordingly. Some plays take place in the Sam Wanamaker Playhouse during the winter, where the room is illuminated by over 100 beeswax candles.
To secure optimal views, target tickets at the center of the lower and middle galleries as the actors project to this area. Budget-conscious attendees can take advantage of standing yard tickets. Performances span approximately 2½ hours, but if you’re time-strapped, opt for a 40-minute guided Globe Theatre tour.
