Buy the guided tour is if you're lucky like me, you'll have a young lady in love with Shakespeare and the history of English theater. Besides the visit, it has a wonderful museum and interactive games for the kids. The store is nice too. Super recommend it.

Given the various fires that struck it over the centuries, Shakespeare's Globe was however faithfully and amazingly rebuilt. Inside you can breathe a mystical air that takes you back to the era of Shakespeare's representations. I recommend everyone to pay a visit because it is really worth it

Saw a Winter's Tale here a couple of weeks ago and it was incredible. Beautiful theatre, friendly staff, world class performers. Dress for the weather and bring a hat for the afternoon sun. Would go again in a heartbeat!

I went on an absolutely fascinating tour of the Globe recently. The tour guide was exceptionally knowledgeable and bought the whole place to life with her stories and observations. I'm amazed more people don't consider a trip here. It's a must-see attraction.

Normally I'm not the guy for all that cultural and historical stuff, but our tour guide (I think her name was Natalia) was super nice and made it interesting also for teens who normally don't like such a building... and in generell it was very interesting and not just a boring museum!

the globe theatre is one of the best theatre experiences in London. I have yest to attend a play that I would criticise. Standing tickets are 5 pounds and allows the viewer to get closer to the action on stage. If it rains bring a mac as the theatre is open air. Highly enjoyable experience and highly recommended to anyone coming to London. Plays are not limited to Shakespeare.

A very pleasant and lively guided tour with a passionate guide, Fred. Be careful the Globe can only be seen by guided tour and there is a separate entrance for these tours. Be careful the tour is entirely in English.

Went to see Richard IV (Part I) which is really an amazing play. The medieval king opens and closes the drama, but story for the king s son Prince Hal, later Henry V, also a young English hero, Hotspur, the rebellious Henry Percy. The history is almost overwhelmed by the iconic larger-than-life character of Falstaff. Directed by Sarah Bedi and Federay Holmes in collaboration with the Globe Ensemble, the production is full of intelligent detail and regularly bursts into life interacting with the audience.

Great representation of an old theatre. The actors were phenomenal and made the play delightful. We were happily pleased with the play and theatre. We definitely recommend this to anyone visiting London. It allows one a view into the past.

A wonderful experience and a must for every theater lover. The work is lived standing up, paying 5 pounds for entry into the yard. If it rains, no umbrella, so as not to disturb the vision of those behind you.

The actors run in the yard and interact with the public, and the show is unique every time. An unforgettable magic.

Replica of the original Globe Theater completed in the 1990s. Live performances here still honor the standing area just before the stage at a ticket price less than you'd pay for a movie and seating in the stands surrounding the stage.

Highly recommend the open-air theater experience on a warm evening.

Painstakingly rebuilt at almost same location and with same materials as original Shakespeare s Globe. Royal Shakespeare Company (RSC) holds Shakespeare productions. Be aware it is open so if you book stalls (great Acustics) and it rains then you get wet. No umbrellas allowed.

Inside Globe is also Sam Wanamaker s theatre which is a King James period theatre. Very nice atmosphere with only candle lighting.
