Hamlet
A comedy by William Shakespeare

presentsThe Globe TheaterShakespeares Globe Theater has a rich and
exciting history! The Globe Theater was first built in 1576, by a
man named James Burbage in London. A few years later, a law was
passed in London, dictating that theater was illegal. Due to this,
the Globe had to be torn down and moved to Southwark, the bad side
of town. After a few years, a cannon shot set fire to the Globes
thatch roof, and burned it down. Once again, the Globe was rebuilt,
only to be shut down by Puritans. It was only until the 20th
century that the Globe was rebuilt again, by a man named Samuel
Wanamaker. Today the Globe is rebuilt in all its former glory. The
theater is now an almost exact replica of Shakespeares original
Globe. In conclusion, Shakespeares Globe Theaters exciting history
was fascinating, and the Globe will continue to be amazing in the
future.

foundation Aegeon and Aemelia are a happy couple with two pairs of
twins: one of the pairs are of their own blood, and the other pair
are servants to their twins. Unfortuantely, the couple gets
separated, each having a boy of each pair, and coincidentally name
the boys exactly the same: Antipholus is the name of the rich one,
and Dromio is the name of the servant. Aegeon one day travels to
Ephesus, where he is captured by the Duke, who sentences him to
death unless his fine is paid. Will Antipholus of Syracuse be able
to get him the money? Or will his twin get in the way?The Comedy of
Errors!
The Comedy of Errors: Scene 1The very first scene is where the
Duke tells Aegeon he has to get 1000 marks before the day ends, or
he will die. Aegeon is being held by the buff officer.
