Titus Andronicus

Today I went to the Globe on South Bank to see Titus Andronicus at the Globe. This was the second play I've seen at the Globe and I thoroughly enjoyed it. It was very useful to see a live performance of a Shakespearean play because it showed me how much energy is required and with that energy his plays can be extremely entertaining and relatable. I loved how the actors used the audience to ab-live occasionally and this is defiantly something we would like to include in our performance, as it is a comedy every night should be different according to who your audience is. 

Just before we went in, I found a timeline of all of Shakespeare's plays and when he wrote them on one of the walls outside the theatre. 'As You Like It' was written in 1599 the same year it was performed. This was a very busy period for Shakespeare as he was vastly popular and his plays were in demand, so he wrote a lot of his well known ones around this period.
