It is a modern take on a Shakespeare's classic. They mostly used current english language wirh some reception switching tò Shakespeare's originale text during Key and importante scenes. It was funny and staying in the yard gives a full experience of the event with actors appearing suddemlt in the audience.

The actors were fantastic and the music and costumes were as well. I loved the kitschy choreography! The theater has been maintained beautifully and is a historical tribute to Shakespeare's time period. We had a memorable experience there and hope to return someday.

We live coming to the Globe. The productions are always fresh and creative, and the acting is excellent. We love the way the actors use the pit and maximize the comedy and accessibility of the plays. Just SO much fun. See you next year!

Being in open theatre with sun, wind and sounds of city life was amazing. When the actors were moving amongst audience we felt like part of the play. The characters were larger than life, no microphones making us feel like standing in Globe Theatre from 18th century and very original experience. I went with my family visiting from the USA and we felt that it was a very unique experience. We definitely would visiting again.
