President Obama visits The Globe

US President Barack Obama visited us today, as we mark the 400th anniversary of Shakespeare’s death this weekend. The President was welcomed into the Globe Theatre by the cast of Hamlet, home from their two-year tour to 197 countries.

The Hamlet company performed a selection of scenes from the production for the President. The company have returned home for the weekend for four final performances, having travelled over 300,000 km and played 293 performances at 202 venues in 197 countries.

Dominic Dromgoole, our Artistic Director: 

“At the end of an extraordinary journey all around the world, it is great to return home to the Globe, and to be able to perform a few scenes and to be welcomed home by President Barack Obama. The spirit of ‘Yes we can’ has informed the entire tour, and it’s an honour to meet the man who coined the phrase, and who exemplifies its spirit.”

So, You're Thinking About Seeing a Play - The Toast

A play is a movie that can spit on you.

A talkback is when upper-middle-aged-and-beyond men will explain the play to you.

Ticket price and play quality have very little to do with one another, so don’t compensate with applause so as to validate your purchase. You’re cheapening this for everyone else.

Unless it’s your writer friend’s play. Clap to the brink of rioting.

Why Theater Majors Are Vital in the Digital Age

As technology and machines consume more and more of life, perhaps theater can help us remember what it means to act like a human being.
