Globe & TATE Modern Bankside’s foremost attractions, Shakespeare’s Globe and Tate Modern, have teamed up to offer a special combined cultural day out for your group!

Globe Exhibition The Globe Theatre, founded by Sam Wanamaker, is a faithful reconstruction of Shakespeare’s Elizabethan playhouse. Globe Exhibition explores the remarkable story of the theatre, and brings Shakespeare’s world to life using a range of interactive displays and live demonstrations. Visitors can discover how shows were produced in the playhouses of Shakespeare’s time, from writing and rehearsals to music, dance and performance.

Globe Theatre Tour A visit to the exhibition includes a 30minute guided tour of the Globe Theatre.

Our expert guide-storytellers provide fascinating tours of the auditorium, vividly recreating colourful stories of the 1599 Globe playhouse, the reconstruction process in the 1990s and how the ‘wooden O’ works today as an imaginative and experimental space for performance.

TATE MODERN Housed in the former Bankside Power Station, Tate Modern displays the Tate collection of international modern art from 1900 to the present day. A private tour of Tate Modern is a great way to make the most of a group visit.

The gallery shows the Tate collection of modern art in a completely new way.

Instead of the traditional chronological order, displays are arranged in themes, each of which spans the century, with each theme arranged in a suite of galleries.

One-hour tours offer an introduction to these displays.
