What did the Globe Theatre look like on outside?

The Globe Theatre was a large, circular building with a thatched roof. The exterior walls were made of wood and plaster. There were three tiers of galleries, each of which had a balcony. The top gallery was open to the sky. The stage was a platform that extended into the audience. There was a trap door in the stage that allowed actors to appear and disappear. The Globe Theatre was a very popular place for entertainment in Elizabethan London.
