Globe Theatre
in 1997.
The new theatre is a short distance from the original site, and was the first thatched-roof building permitted in London since the Great Fire of London of 1666. The original plan was modified by the addition of sprinklers on the roof, to protect against fire.
As in the original, both the stage and the audience are outdoors. Plays are put on during the summer, and in the winter the theatre is used for educational purposes, and tours are available.
