Housed beneath the reconstructed Globe Theatre on Bankside, the exhibition explores the remarkable story of the struggle to rebuild the Globe, and brings Shakespeare’s world to life using a range of interactive displays and live demonstrations.

  • Visit the world of Elizabethan Bankside.
  • Discover how shows were produced in the theatres of Shakespeare’s time.
  • Find out how special effects were produced.
  • Join the cast and add your voice to a scene recorded by Globe actors.
  • Create your own Shakespearean phrases in the word jungle.
  • Watch a sword-fighting display.
  • Browse the costume collection and find out how period clothing is recreated.

Throughout the year a fascinating guided tour of the Globe Theatre is included in your visit to the Exhibition.

  • Tours begin every 15 – 30 minutes during opening hours.
  • During matinee performances in the theatre, when guided tours of the Globe are not possible, visitors will be taken to the nearby site of Bankside’s first theatre : the Rose.
  • The last guided tour of the auditorium is at 12:30 during the theatre season.
