Shakespeare’s Globe Theatre
9.00 am - 5.00 pm
William Shakespeare’s original Globe Theatre was built in 1599 and destroyed by a fire in 1613 before being rebuilt in 1614. At the time the Bankside neighbourhood in Southwark was at the heart of London’s seedy theatre district, although the theatre was demolished in 1644 when the neighbourhood was no longer the focus of London’s entertainment district.
National Theatre
The Royal National Theatre, more commonly known as simply the National Theatre, is one of the United Kingdom’s most prominent theatres for both contemporary and classical theatre productions.
The brutalist building on the South Bank of the River Thames houses three separate theatres: the 1100-seat Olivier Theatre, the 890-seat Lyttleton Theatre and the 400-seat Dorfman Theatre. In addition to the three permanent theatres, open-air performances are sometimes held on the theatre’s riverside forecourt.
