The most famous London theatre, Shakespeares Globe Theatre is an essential stop on the capital's cultural trail. Thespians flock to the faithfully reconstructed open air playhouse which was designed in 1599.

Shakespeare worked and wrote many of his plays at the Globe Theatre and his plays continue to be performed to a full house. Gallery seating and standing room is provided just as it was over 400 years ago. The theatre season runs from May to October and includes plays by Shakespeare and his contemporaries as well as more recent playwrights.
