Pop Up Globe
It took 35 days to erect: a replica of the second Globe Theatre in the middle of Auckland, as the world celebrates the 400th anniversary of Shakespeare’s death. The season from mid-february to well into April, with international stars and many sold out sessions. The construction uses modern scaffolding technology, with plywood, seating up to 900.
A few pictures from a tour of the venue with Edward Bijl.

Quite a construct. I’d want to see each of those plays… though I wonder about the typo on Much Adoe!

No typo – the company presenting Much Adoe About Nothing opted to use the original 1623 First Folio spelling! 🙂
