An amazing take on a historical play. So well acted, original, authentic perspective on Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet. Standing as a groundling let me have a unique opportunity to have the actors running between us, and getting covered in blood splatter (machine washable) and water was totally different and I LOVED every minute of it!

I can't speak highly enough! We went to see Much Ado About Nothing. It was superb. The actors were terrific and funny. The engagement with the audience was total. The venue itself is fantastic, we were seated in the lower level, the view of the action on stage was great even though we were quite far off to the side. The people standing were having a great time, but I didn't want to stand for that long. Facilities were good and theatre staff were really helpful and efficient. Definitely make the time to visit and enjoy a show before it is gone. An awesome evening at the theatre spent in the company of my daughter.
It's been quite a while since we went, not even sure if it's still open, but I would Definitely go again if another show was as good as Richard III. The globe is made up of almost all scaffolding but it felt safe enough. It also of course has the pit, but be prepared to get blood splatters and stuff on you down there! They had drinks and chips and stuff in stalls outside of the Globe. Lit well too.
Fantastic experience. It was always on my bucket list to go to a Pop up Globe theater and it surely paid off! I loved it! Such a unique experience. Took the 10 standing ticket. Bear in mind these concerts are 3 hours so wear comfy shoes NOT heels haha.
This was my fourth visit to the Pop Up Globe in Ellerslie. What a fabulous venue for seeing some culture and such great ambiance. You really feel you are back in Shakespeare's time. So sad it's being pulled down as ''Emilia' is the last play to be performed there.
Absolutely amazing performance of Much Ado About Nothing! It just got better and better as the show went on. Great theatre, very good value for money, especially if you want to stand in the groundlings. Great cast, fantastic adaptation and great variation added to this classic.
Fantastic performance of a midsummer night dream tonight with super charismatic actors and flawless audience interaction that meshed very naturally into the play. Everyone in the audience was laughing along and even during scenes where the actors were speaking in Maori, they made it easy to understand what they were talking about. Would definitely recommend for anyone looking for a good 3 hours of entertainment well worth your money. If you don't want to get your clothes splattered with fake blood I would reccomend buying a seat or standing in the back as it can get quite messy. Lucky the maple syrupy blood washes off very easily:)
Hilarious, unique, entertaining good times at the pop-up globe. I went to much ado about nothing it is not your average presentation, it’s both true to the original and modern, for the fantastic Pacific Island flavour and modern gigs that Shakespeare would love I’m sure. Go early, take food, get a drink, type of crowd. The season ends soon, go while you can!
