The Globe Theatre was an open-air amphitheater in London built in 1599 by Shakespeare's playing company, the Lord Chamberlain's Men. It had a diameter of around 100 feet and could seat up to 3,000 spectators on its three-story structure. Plays were performed on a nearly 43 by 28 foot rectangular stage platform that likely contained trap doors and rigging for special effects. The theatre was destroyed by fire on June 29, 1613.
