What happened to the Globe Theatre in June 26 1613?

On 29 June 1613, the Globe Theatre in London, England, was destroyed by fire. The fire started during a performance of Henry VIII, when a cannon used in the play misfired and set the thatched roof alight. The entire theatre was quickly consumed by the flames, and the only thing that remained standing was the outer wall.

The Globe Theatre had been built in 1599 by the actor and playwright William Shakespeare and his business partners, the Burbage family. It was one of the most popular theatres in London, and it was where many of Shakespeare's plays were first performed. The destruction of the Globe Theatre was a major loss for the English theatre world.
