Globe Theater: Shakespeare Party
built 266 days ago
Insert Shakespeare's Globe, and provide your students with a FOCUS FOR MEDIA INTERACTION by asking them to notice how the theater experience presented in the video is different from what they expected. START and PLAY the tape when you see actors in battle gear coming on stage. The narrator has just said, "I wonder what an audience would make of this today? PAUSE the tape when you hear the stage actor say, "There's witchcraft in your eyes, Kate," and see a befuddled-looking actress (a scene from The Taming of the Shrew).

This 3D model of Shakespeare’s Globe theater is built to scale. It includes a possible reconstruction of the rooms behind the stage; the pulley system used to lower characters or objects through the trap door in the “heavens”, and the trap door in the stage allowing actors to drop beneath the stage surface. The model was developed to allow for explorations of character and object placement (blocking) on the stage, in the reading of Shakespeare’s plays.
