Art and Culture in London

"If you hope to see a Shakespearean play performed well, the Globe is the place to hit. Shakespeare’s Globe is a beautiful structure inspired by the original Elizabethan playhouse where the Bard first staged his plays. Open since 1997 on London’s South Bank, the theater offers both classical and contemporary productions across two spaces. The main auditorium was created to resemble the original Globe Theatre with an open-top roof, standing tickets, and traditional bench seating. Performances happen no matter the weather, and if you’re prepared to get wet, standing tickets in the Yard cost about $6.50. Those keen to learn a little more can also take an informative backstage tour and explore the theater’s exhibition." - MATADOR_NETWORK
