The owner of the Theater lost his lease, so constructed a new playhouse, the Globe, with five partners. Many Shakespearean plays were performed and produced here, so when it burned to the ground, a second Globe was quickly built. ]]> 2018-03-20 19:11:33 UTC https://padlet.com/starkjor001/zwz6vlk4vw1h/wish/244232516 starkjor001 https://padlet.com/starkjor001/zwz6vlk4vw1h/wish/244235349 The London Playhouses were multi-sided structures with a central, uncovered "yard" surrounded by three tiers of covered seating and a bare, raised stage at one end of the yard. Spectators could pay for seating at multiple price levels; those with the cheapest tickets simply stood for the length of the plays.Indoor theaters created a more intimate experience for the audience, with artificial light, closer settings, and better sounds. ]]> 2018-03-20 19:17:19 UTC https://padlet.com/starkjor001/zwz6vlk4vw1h/wish/244235349 starkjor001 https://padlet.com/starkjor001/zwz6vlk4vw1h/wish/244235501 All Shakespeare performances were performed by men. The plays featured actors fencing, singing, dancing, playing instruments, completing athletic activities, and more. The costumes were typically modern and extravagant. The stages were bare, with little scenery, because the actors and imagery from words set the scene. ]]> 2018-03-20 19:17:35 UTC https://padlet.com/starkjor001/zwz6vlk4vw1h/wish/244235501 starkjor001 https://padlet.com/starkjor001/zwz6vlk4vw1h/wish/244235583 Most of Shakespeare's plays were independent, but some of his life and work did involve others and special business arrangements. One example is the business partner Shakespeare had from a major acting company, the Lord Chamberlain's Men, which was renamed the King's Men in 1603.]]> 2018-03-20 19:17:49 UTC https://padlet.com/starkjor001/zwz6vlk4vw1h/wish/244235583 bhullsan000 https://padlet.com/starkjor001/zwz6vlk4vw1h/wish/244237220 Shakespeare wrote at least 38 plays that continue to be performed even 400 years after his death.

Shakespeare was born around April 23, 1564. He was baptized three days later in the Holy Trinity Church in Stratford-upon-Avon. Shakespeare's father was in a public position much like a mayor, which leads historians to believe he attended the local grammar school.]]> 2018-03-20 19:28:56 UTC https://padlet.com/starkjor001/zwz6vlk4vw1h/wish/244240674 knauseth000 https://padlet.com/starkjor001/zwz6vlk4vw1h/wish/244240861 Beginning in 1585, it is not known for a few years afterwards what exactly Shakespeare did.

In 1709, Nicholas Rowe became the first modern editor of Shakespeare's plays. Editors in every age have addressed a variety of questions, but other publishers have taken the text in new directions. In 1593 and 1594, Shakespeare already established as playwright, published two long poems, Venus and Adonis and Lucrece. The printer, Richard Field, grew up with Shakespeare in Stratford. ]]> 2018-03-20 19:34:52 UTC https://padlet.com/starkjor001/zwz6vlk4vw1h/wish/244243175 bhullsan000 https://padlet.com/starkjor001/zwz6vlk4vw1h/wish/244257648 A folio is a large book in which printed sheets are folded in half only once, creating two double-sided leaves, or four pages. Seven years after Shakespeare's death, John Heminge and Henry Condell, his friends and colleagues in the King's Men, collected almost all of his plays in a folio edition. The 1623 First Folio of Shakespeare, is the earliest folio consisting only of an author's plays. ]]> 2018-03-20 20:09:32 UTC https://padlet.com/starkjor001/zwz6vlk4vw1h/wish/244257648 knauseth000 https://padlet.com/starkjor001/zwz6vlk4vw1h/wish/244306592 Shakespeare's life story started in Stratford in 1564. 15 years after this, he almost certainly attended Stratford's grammar school, where he would have studied Latin classics including acting and writing. After he left school in 1582, Shakespeare married Anne Hathaway. They went on to have twins. Their son, Hamlet passed but their daughter lived to marry a doctor. Not much is known about his early days in London, but when he resurfaces in 1592 as an already established London actor. He went to prosper from his plays and writing and bought the second largest house in Stratford. He passed away in 1616.]]> 2018-03-20 23:01:44 UTC https://padlet.com/starkjor001/zwz6vlk4vw1h/wish/244306592 sinclrya000 https://padlet.com/starkjor001/zwz6vlk4vw1h/wish/244363939 The time period when Shakespeare was writing was one of the most progressive time periods in literature.
