Shakespeare's Globe Theatre and Tour Vouchers 2018

Standing a few scant yards from the original site, Shakespeare’s Globe is a faithful rebuilding of the most famous Theatre in the Round where Shakespeare wrote and performed most of his beloved plays. It had burned to the ground in 1613 after some wadding from a stage cannon caught on fire during a performance of Henry VIII. It was then rebuilt but found itself closed down under England’s Puritan administration in 1642. Two years later, it was demolished to make way for tenements.

Now, thanks to the persevering efforts of Sam Wanamaker, the name sake of the other stage on Globe premises, the Globe has returned full force (and less flammable!). You can enjoy plays at the Globe or go on a tour of the building to learn more about one of literature’s most influential and enduring playwrights and with our special promotional codes, you can get a great deal.
