The Globe Theatre

The people with the power, they didn't like theatre. They were very puritanical and quite suspicious of theatre, I would say, and so, in Shakespeare's later life theatre in London was banned. And so there were four theatres, stylistically similar to the Globe within two hundred meters of where we are. What is permanent is the blue background decoration, and the decorations in the theatres were largerly based on Greek mythologies, so heaven, earth and hell. Theatrically, firing the candle is fantastic, in reality its a bit of a disaster waiting to happen, and that is one day what happened. They fired the candle, big explosion and than started the fire that destroyed the theatre. You are a young woman in love with Romeo. Yeah, Romeo, Romeo, you see this beautiful woman.
