PROPS

The Globe Theatre is not usually associated with the use of props. However many Props and [|Special Effects] were used to enhance the dramatic and visual effects of plays performed at the Globe Theatre. The better the spectacle, the bigger the audiences and the greater the profit - much like the modern theatre we enjoy today. A static location, such as the Globe Theatre, allowed for the storage of props. This was not a practical option for the plays performed by travelling acting troupes at the ** **Inn** **yards. The building of the first Elizabethan Theatres therefore saw the increase in the number of props used.** ** List of Globe Theatre Props The Globe Theatre props would have started with easily moveable objects such as:** § **Swords and daggers** § **Goblets and plates** § **Chairs and stools** § **Candles and torches** § **Blood soaked handkerchiefs** § **Writing materials** § **Manuscripts** § **Bottles of Wine or ale** § **Whips** § **Books** § **Blankets** § **Helmets** § **Armor** § **False jewels** § **Crowns** § **Skulls and bones** <span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Wingdings; mso-fareast-font-family: Wingdings; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Wingdings; msofareastfontfamily: Wingdings; msobidifontsize: 12.0pt; msobidifontfamily: Wingdings; msolist: Ignore;">§ **Animal furs** <span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Wingdings; mso-fareast-font-family: Wingdings; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Wingdings; msofareastfontfamily: Wingdings; msobidifontsize: 12.0pt; msobidifontfamily: Wingdings; msolist: Ignore;">§ **Flags and banners** <span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Wingdings; mso-fareast-font-family: Wingdings; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Wingdings; msofareastfontfamily: Wingdings; msobidifontsize: 12.0pt; msobidifontfamily: Wingdings; msolist: Ignore;">§ **Caskets and containers** <span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Wingdings; mso-fareast-font-family: Wingdings; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Wingdings; msofareastfontfamily: Wingdings; msobidifontsize: 12.0pt; msobidifontfamily: Wingdings; msolist: Ignore;">§ **Flowers and petals** **As time went by larger objects were used as Globe Theatre Props** <span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Wingdings; mso-fareast-font-family: Wingdings; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Wingdings; msofareastfontfamily: Wingdings; msobidifontsize: 12.0pt; msobidifontfamily: Wingdings; msolist: Ignore;">§ **Benches** <span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Wingdings; mso-fareast-font-family: Wingdings; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Wingdings; msofareastfontfamily: Wingdings; msobidifontsize: 12.0pt; msobidifontfamily: Wingdings; msolist: Ignore;">§ **Beds** <span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Wingdings; mso-fareast-font-family: Wingdings; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Wingdings; msofareastfontfamily: Wingdings; msobidifontsize: 12.0pt; msobidifontfamily: Wingdings; msolist: Ignore;">§ **Thrones** <span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Wingdings; mso-fareast-font-family: Wingdings; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Wingdings; msofareastfontfamily: Wingdings; msobidifontsize: 12.0pt; msobidifontfamily: Wingdings; msolist: Ignore;">§ **Cave** <span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Wingdings; mso-fareast-font-family: Wingdings; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Wingdings; msofareastfontfamily: Wingdings; msobidifontsize: 12.0pt; msobidifontfamily: Wingdings; msolist: Ignore;">§ **Barrels** <span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Wingdings; mso-fareast-font-family: Wingdings; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Wingdings; msofareastfontfamily: Wingdings; msobidifontsize: 12.0pt; msobidifontfamily: Wingdings; msolist: Ignore;">§ **Well** <span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Wingdings; mso-fareast-font-family: Wingdings; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Wingdings; msofareastfontfamily: Wingdings; msobidifontsize: 12.0pt; msobidifontfamily: Wingdings; msolist: Ignore;">§ **Tables** <span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Wingdings; mso-fareast-font-family: Wingdings; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Wingdings; msofareastfontfamily: Wingdings; msobidifontsize: 12.0pt; msobidifontfamily: Wingdings; msolist: Ignore;">§ **Canon**
