The Shakespearian Theatre-

The Shakespearian Theatre was an open air theatre associated with Shakespeare, built in 1599, and was originally called the Globe Theatre. It was the typical public theatre space of the 15/16th century. There were mainly no seats and the audience normally stood up.
The theatre was mainly owned by the actors, who were shareholders in Lord Chamberlains Men too. The theatre had been built using timber from an old theatre, called ‘The Theatre’.
