Note: Built 1599 by Cuthbert and Richard Burbage, using timber from The Theatre in Shoreditch (London's first permanent playhouse that was thus demolished). Apparently named after the figure of Hercules bearing the globe, as showed on the theatre's sign. Destroyed by a fire on 29 June 1613 after two cannons had been fired off during a performance of Shakespeare's Henry VIII. - [In 1614, a new Globe, built from tiles, was erected on the same site. Demolished in 1644. In 1997, a reconstruction at another site in Bankside was opened as Shakespeare's Globe.]
