Silvano Toti Globe Theatre
Rome’s Globe Theatre is a full-scale timber reproduction of Shakespeare’s Globe, copied from the original oak and thatch designs, and almost identical to the one that stands on London’s South Bank. The festival attracts around 65,000 spectators each year, and all shows are in Italian with the exception of the final production. For programme and ticket details see Globe website.
