A short documentary about the Globe Theater, its history and present - MADE FOR A HIGH SCHOOL ENGLISH PROJECT. WE ARE NOT EXPERTS. THERE ARE LIKELY SOME FACTUAL ERRORS.
High School students deserve to know and explore this key fact: Globe spectators surrounded three sides of the stage. Question for high school students: how does this contrast with acting Shakespeare's lines on a stage with spectators in front? How does it 1. Change the way you move when you speak Shakespeare's lines? 2. Change the meaning of the lines? 3. Provide entrances from the yard anywhere onto the stage? 4. Challenge you to be more imaginative in performance.
Mark Godwin, Globe Theatre Expert - Serious? You've put a good looking American kid in front of a camera and given him a script to read. He may be passionate on the subject but calling him an expert? He probably isn't sure about shaving yet, how can he be an expert on anything?
Good video, thank-you. Please don't think I'm being hyper-critical but I need to let you know that the name of the river running through London is pronounced "Tems" not "Thaims" even though it is spelt "Thames" I know!, I know! but we English are a bit "odd" in our spelling. Anyways, a good video and thanks.
It's wrong to have factual errors in this important documentary, especially for high school students. The "experts" should list their qualifications. The image of The Theatre is 19th century: it should be the 16th century image from "London from the North" showing the Curtain & the Theatre playhouses; the Globe's acoustics were never "flawed"; the video should show Hollar's well-known image of the second Globe (1614-1644) distinguished from Norden's view of the first Globe (1599-1614).
This is... Interesting. The voice sounds weird though.
I use this video every year in my English classes. Thank you so much for uploading.
this is exactly what i need to know! thx! the voice kind of gets on my nerves, tho....:)

thanks for this im using it for an assignment
awesome documentary! C:
this is an art form
don't yall make fun of his voice yall be tripping
Shakespeare was a great man, but no theater was great enough to hold his plays.
It sounds like Thomas Newman, road to perdition soundtrack possibly.

@verticalsmurf derp
BTW it's Theatre(not Theater) if you are describing a Theatre in England!
Please use a REAL voice and not what is obviously a computerised one.

@verticalsmurf - clearly you didn't read the video description or you would have seen this was made for a high school assignment!
what was the only flaw of the design & what was one of the common mistakes people make about shakespeare ownership?
YA VOICE! GODDAMMIT!
lol nice experts i think he said it burnt to the ground during Henry the 7th. i was tought today it was Henry the 8th.
I LOVE WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE

Nice Jobss (OMG)

Had to stop after you said "Th"ames. Otherwise interesting.
his voice is so annoying and you can hear him breathe in.
****Horrible commentary with the music running concurrently***
