British Library has only Shakespeare's firstfolios, but no actual manuscripts!

I think you are very funny. A really interesting and light touch to your videos. As a Shakespeare nut I have to correct you SORRY! You say a copy of "Shakespeare's Globe at Stratford-Upon-Avon". The original was also on Bankside about a hundred yards from where the new one is. You also say the British Library has original manuscripts by Shakespeare...there are NO original manuscripts by Shakespeare in existence. You saw a "first folio" printed edition of his plays produced after his death.

Thank you so much for the correction! I had a feeling i was getting a bunch of stuff wrong and will put it in the annotation ahora! Also, I thought I saw some of Shakespeare's handwritten notes for some of the plays...was I hallucinating, are the only surviving documents first folios? Thanks again!

i am from the philippines, i love shakespeare, it made a big impact to me when it was thought to us in high school. we are not required to read all of his masterpiece, but i continue to read the rest of them at home when i do not have any home works.

@jb10626 well if you build it out of metal it would be rather pointless. the idea as to re-create it to make it look like the original however there is a small diference...there are lots of sprinklers on the roof to put out a fire ;)

We'll rebuild it out of wood! :D

I'm from Oxford!! Which tower were you climbing? It looked a bit like Carfax tower but then the views from the top were confusing.

Even if I'm french I can (hardly) understand that it was a GOOD travel, isn't it? It was so cool to see that video! So, thank you soooo much for that, you're just incredible!
