Globe Theater

This week was awesome, because seeing the Globe Theater was a trip highlight.  It may not be the original theater that Shakespeare wrote for, but still there is something extraordinary about the Globe replica.  The care and attention that was put into making it- as detailed in the exhibit section.  The thatched roof was made with reeds as the original had been.  During our tour, the box seats were being painted with scenes from mythology- one I could recognize was the death of Adonis. Our tour guide said it wasn't a touch up job, but the first time the artwork was being painted there.  As I was going through it, I kept thinking I must see a show here, I can't leave London without doing so.
