| Description | Audio visual recordings made for research purposes of Globe theatre performances and education events. The recordings of the theatre productions are unique in that several recordings are made, from the first nights through to the closing performance in order to show the arc of the performance. Additionally, in the Globe Theatre, there are sometimes up to three recordings made of a particular performance from different camera angles.
