A Midsummer Night’s dream Afternoon Tea inspired by scenes from the play, guests will be able to enjoy a collection of sweet and savory delights, many of which can be traced back to the food and characters seen in the play itself.
Visitors to the exhibition can discover how shows were produced in the theatres of Shakespeare's time, from writing and rehearsals to music, dance and performance. There are opportunities to learn about the traditional crafts and techniques used during the process of rebuilding the Globe; to find out how special effects were produced in Shakespeare's time, to listen to recordings from some of the most memorable Shakespearean performances ever, or join the cast and add your own voice to a scene recorded by Globe actors; to create your own Shakespearean phrases in the word jungle; to watch a sword-fighting display and browse the costume collection, where you can learn about the extraordinary methods used in creating clothes 400 years ago.
A visit to the Exhibition includes a guided tour of the theatre where expert guide-storytellers provide fascinating half hour tours of the auditorium, taking visitors on a journey through time back to Elizabethan London as well as the reconstruction process of the 1980's-90's and how the wooden 'o' works today as an imaginative and experimental theatrical space.
An exhibition visit and theatre tour lasts about one and a half hours.

Die Kuppel der St. Paul's Cathedral ist aus der Skyline von London nicht wegzudenken. Nach dem der große Brand von London im Jahr 1666 den Vorgängerbau zerstörte, wurde die Kathedrale in den Jahren 1675 - 1710 nach den Plänen des berühmten Architekten Sir Christopher Wren gebaut. Sie war die erste Kathedrale, die zu Lebzeiten des Architekten fertiggestellt wurde.
Seitdem werden in der St. Paul's Cathedral Ereignisse von nationaler und internationaler Bedeutung zelebriert. Königliche Hochzeiten, Thronjubiläen und Staatsbegräbnisse für britische Helden wie Winston Churchill fanden in den Gemäuern der Kathedrale statt.
Sir Christopher Wrens architektonisches Meisterwerk wurde anlässlich des 300. Geburtstages der Kathedrale über 15 Jahre für 40 Millionen Pfund grundlegend renoviert.
