- Mid-price
- Big night
See a play in the open-air reconstruction of Shakespeare's theatre, standing in the yard as a groundling or seated in the galleries; in winter, plays move into the candlelit Sam Wanamaker Playhouse next door.
Why it's a good date: Standing in the yard is cheap and puts you right by the stage, so it's a great first taste. Bring a layer for the open-air season: the yard has no roof.
