Shakespeare's Globe, 2005 DVD Shakespeare's Globe is a film
offering an intimate look at the

the sixteenth-century open-air
playhouse to the establishment
of a centre housing the theatre,

life of this remarkable
enterprise: behind-the-scenes
preparations, rehearsals,
backstage drama and
performance extracts from a
production of Romeo and
Juliet, together with glimpses
into Globe Education

exhibition and tours.
