Sam Wanamaker Playhouse
The Sam Wanamaker Playhouse is a small indoor Jacobean style playhouse, next to the famous Globe Theatre. It is lit entirely by candlelight.
Address
21 New Globe Walk, Bankside, London, SE1 9DT
What I like
I like the small and intimate size of this theatre. It is often possible to find last minute tickets that are very affordable. Unlike the Globe Theatre, which is an outdoor venue, the Sam Wanamaker Playhouse is suitable for all weather and seasons.
