New Style Of Theatre

With the reopening of the theaters in 1594, Shakespeare is associated with the companion of Lord Chamberlain, who was the queen's cousin, joined the companion of Lord Admiral. It is a great opportunity to Shakespeare: in just over two ants write: Romeo and Juliet, the dream of a summer night, The amanssiment of Fury, The Merchant of Venice, Richard II.

The government only allows the children's performances, but these end up taking a critical tone even more corrosive than those of adults. Shakespeare criticizes this atmosphere in one of the largest tragedies that writes, Henry IV, a play starring the sarcastic and relaxing Falstaff (a character in Shakespeare recover the glory of Windsor married.)

Three works are for young players decided that, in the absence of sensible men, adopting the role of boys; Much ado about nothing, At your discretion and Twelfth Night.

ANSWERS

1. Lord Chamberlain's Men

2. Two: the Globe and the Fortune

3. Shakespeare's company only built the Globe because they could not use the special playhouse that their chief actor Richard Burbage's father had built for them in 1596, a roofed theatre inside the city, in Blackfriars.

4. It was built in 1599 by two brothers; Richard and Cuthbert Burbage

5. The Theatre had closed, ostensibly for good, in 1597, and the owner of the land on which it stood threatened to pull the building down once the lease had expired. The Burbages and their associates anticipated the threat, however, and in late 1598 dismantled The Theatre and carried the materials to Bankside (a district of Southwark stretching for about half a mile west of London Bridge on the south bank of the River Thames).
Without The Theatre, the company had to rent a playhouse. Then at the end of 1598 they decided to build one for themselves. The shortage of cash made the consortium reluctant traditionalists, giving up the idea of an indoor theatre in the city and using the old Theatre's timbers and therefore the same basic auditorium shape for the new building. The old playhouse was one of their few remaining resources. They could not use it in situ because the lease had expired, so they dismantled it and took the timbers (illegally) to make the skeleton of their new amphitheatre. The Globe was a cut-price and fortuitous construction.

6. The Swan and The Rose

7. It was completed by the autumn of 1599

8.In 1613, during a performance of Henry VIII, the thatch of the Globe was accidentally set alight by a cannon, set off to mark the King's entrance onstage in a scene at Cardinal Wolsey's palace. The entire theatre was destroyed within the hour.

9. June 1614

10. In 1644, to make way for tenement dwellings.

11. Acting at the Globe was radically different from viewing modern Shakespeare on screen.The plays were staged in the afternoons, using the light of day. Therefore, all references to weather or time of the day had to be given to the audience through the text.The audience surrounded the stage on all sides. No scenery was used, except for occasional emblematic devices like a throne or a bed. It was almost impossible not to see the other half of the audience standing behind the players. Consequently much of the staging was metatheatrical, conceding the illusory nature of the game of playing, and making little pretense to stage realism .
