They were round buildings, open to the sky.0:10
In the middle, there were no lights or lamps and they showed their place.0:13
The actors, men and boys only performed on the stage where there was no scenery.0:19
Most of the audience stood to watch you play.0:24
For a penny more expensive tickets could get you a seat in the gallery or in a box.0:27
In those days, theatre was an entertainment for both the rich and the poor.0:32
In 1598, Shakespeare's Company of actors had a serious problem with renting the building.0:37
So one snowy winter's night, they took their belongings to the south bank of the Thames.0:44
Then they built the theatre and just 28 days and called it the Globe.0:50
By that time, Shakespeare already had a reputation of a poet and a dramatist or playwright.0:55
Sadly, in 1613, during a performance, the Globe caught fire which destroyed it.1:02
They rebuilt it, but soon the Puritans closed the theatre and destroyed it again.1:09
Anyway, it happened after William Shakespeare had left London for Stratford, where he lived out the last years of his life and died in 1616 on April 23, his birthday.1:15
During his life he wrote 37 plays, several longer poems and 154 sonnets.1:28
His sonnets are 14 line love poems, wise and beautiful.1:36
Even nowadays people learn them by heart and remember lines from them.1:41
The great writer's plays are no less popular.1:45
One of their secrets lies in the fact that he was so great at using words, he could, and still can make audiences sad, happy, thrilled and excited.1:48
He used 18,000 different words, a lot more than most writers.1:59
We know for a fact that Shakespeare made up about 2,000 new words himself.2:05
Some of his phrases have become so common that people use them every day.2:10
His works teach us to understand life and people and will always be internationally important.2:15
