The Globe Theater-Shakespeare’s Theater
The original globe was built in 1599 by a group of actors. Among them was Shakespeare himself and over the next few years his major plays, including the four great tragedies Hamlet , King Lear, Macbeth and othello, were staged there. But during a performance of Henry Vlll, in 1613, a spark from cannon set the thatched roof on fire and the theatre burned down. Although rebuilt, it lasted only until 1644. And that might have been the end of the story, except that another spark then entered the mind of the late American actor and film director Sam Wanamaker 40 years ago, when he came to London and set off to look for the Globe’s original site. He was interviewed last year, shortly before his death:
Nobody really knew where it was. But anyway, I did finally get to it. It was marked by a black plaque, which is still there, on the side of a brewery wall, which said, in effect, this is the site of the world’s greatest theatre. It was erected by the Shakespeare Society of Britain and India and of al places. And I thought, well, why don’t the British do something about this? I mean, this is terrible.
There are imitation globes in several countries around the world - Japan .Germany, the United States ---But all make extensive use of modern technology. Wanamaker wanted to build something that was, as far as possible, an exact reconstruction of Shakespeare’s theatre. It’s this that’s now taking shape by the River Thames, a few hundred yards from the original site. When complete, performances will take place with no artificial lighting, no heating, no recorded music, no modern costume. No amplification, no cuts in the texts; and since the theatre is open air it’s certain that there’ll occasionally be wind and rain. All this is as it would have been in Shakespeare’s day, but actors in the new Glove will also have to compete with the 20th -century sounds like airplanes and police sirens, Sir Anthony Hopkins, one of the country’s best-known Shakespearean actors, was asked how gre4at the problems would be:
I don’t know. I haven’t acted here yet, I guess they’ll meet those problems when they come to it. But I think they’ve taken that on board. Audiences seem to accept it -they’ll accept rain ,snow, hurricane, planes-they’ll accept anything, I suppose.
The new Globe will also be faithful to the original one in its design. Wanamaker explained: It’s a circular building, which is not round -it’s a polygon, consisting of 20 sections, modular sections. These sections represent three galleries-the Glove had three seating galleries, which were covered and protected form the weather. It had back wall, equally protecting it form the weather, and in the center of this circle. And the people who couldn’t afford to pay more than a penny would stand around the stage and the people who would pay a little more could sit in the galleries.
These galleries rise like sheer walls round the stage. Giving it an enclosed, almost claustrophobic feel behind the project is a belief, which was passionately held by Wanamaker, that in recent years productions of Shakespeare have become far too dependent on special technical effects of sound and lighting. Wanamaker with supporters like Bill Bryden, one of Britain’s leading theatre directors argued that with new Glove they would be forced to avoid illusion, and would have to put much more emphasis on the language of the plays.
The Globe project is still short of funds: It’s received little official help form within retain, but a lot of indifference. one reason is the undoubted prejudice against open-air theatre. A prejudice is due mainly to the vagaries of the weather. More seriously, some members of the theatrical establishment believe that, in the end, the reconstruction amounts to no result.
We’re not trying to create museum theatre3 or do it the way they did it in Shakespeare’s time, not at all, we’re simply saying here is a platform here is a circle, and here is the performance without all the illusionist things that we employ to do plays today. It’s wholly different kind of theatre. It goes back to the original forms of theatre. And it was without all this silly business-which is fine for the modern play, but it’s not fine for an Elizabethan play…
Every year Shakespeare’s birth is celebrated with special events at the Globe. And next April next April should be a particularly momentous occasion, since, funds permitting, the theatre is due to celebrate its official opening.
