__﻿What happened after the Globe Theatre was ash?__

The Globe Theatre Reconstruction was a massive and difficult project. It was vitally important to build the replica as an authentic reconstruction of the Globe Theatre of William Shakespeare.

Saddley there was no pictures that showed the inside of the globe theatre, they found a man named Johannes de Witt who had sketched the inside of another theatre that also showed of shakespears plays called the swan. and the builders reconstructed the inside based on that sketch.

__ costumes: __
 * __﻿__ The Globe Theatre Costumes were fabulous - sumptuous materials, vivid colors and extremely costly.


 * The costumes did not always reflect the correct period of the Play. The Globe actors wore the dress of their own time.


 * Some were specifically made for the actors and some were donated by rich patrons.


 * Because there wasn't enough time in between plays to make lots of costumes for every character they would use other theatres costumes as well as there own.


 * People of this time were not allowed to wear whatever they liked! It did not matter how rich they were - the fabric, and even the style of their clothes were dictated by their rank or status.


 * Like the elizbethan theatre PURPLE was also worn for royaly.
