Drawing data for a 3D historical reconstruction of Shakespeare's first Globe Theatre.

ABSTRACT: The first Globe Theatre was one of the main outdoor playhouses in London in the early 17th century. Although it was built in 1599 and was destroyed in a fire in 1613, its history has survived to the present day as the theatre that was able to accommodate most of William Shakespeare's plays. Extensively studied during the last century, it has been attempted to be reconstructed several times in different parts of the world, although the information present does not allow for an exact reconstruction. The data presented here have been collected from the various interpretations offered in literature by the main scholars of the first Globe Theatre and re-elaborated according to criteria of coherence with vernacular building techniques and ease and feasibility of construction.
