What extra comfort did you get if went into the galleries in globe theatre?

The galleries in the Globe Theatre did not offer any extra comfort to the audience members. They were simply elevated seating areas that provided a better view of the stage. The galleries were generally made of wood and were open to the elements, so they were not particularly comfortable places to sit, especially in bad weather. The most expensive and comfortable seats in the Globe Theatre were located in the inner courtyard, where audience members were protected from the elements and given cushions to sit on.
