When is tea really tea?
These days people call all kinds of concoctions steeped in water "tea." But we know better. True tea is only made from the dried leaves of the tea plant, which originally grew wild in India. Even if you stick only with tea made from tea plants, you still have a lot of choice — there are over 3000 varieties today

Answers

1.-The Globe

2.-Two companyes were licensed to perform in London

3.-Shakespeare's company built the Globe because they couldn't use the special playhouse that their chief actor Richard Burbage's father had built for them in 1596, a roofed theatre inside the city, in Blackfriars.

4.-Two brothers, Richard and Cuthbert Burbage

5.-Acting at the Globe was radically different from viewing modern Shakespeare on screen.
The plays were staged in the afternoons, using the light of day. Therefore, all references to weather or time of the day had to be given to the audience through the text.
The audience surrounded the stage on all sides. No scenery was used, except for occasional emblematic devices like a throne or a bed. It was almost impossible not to see the other half of the audience standing behind the players. Consequently much of the staging was metatheatrical, conceding the illusory nature of the game of playing, and making little pretense to stage realism .

6.-It was built in 1559

7.-When was the Globe built ?It was probably completed by the autumn of 1599

8.-In 1613, during a performance of Henry VIII, the thatch of the Globe was accidentally set alight by a cannon, set off to mark the King's entrance onstage in a scene at Cardinal Wolsey's palace. The entire theatre was destroyed within the hour.

9.-By June 1614.

10-It was pulled down in 1644, two years after the Puritans closed all theatres, to make way for tenement dwellings
