Description	:	Question: Would you like to design for the Globe? Answer: It's not really a theatre for a designer I don't think. It's a theatre for the actor. Arguably, depending on what the actor, what the director's interested, less for the director as well, I mean if the director is interested in working with actors. I think Declan would work jump at working with the...at the Globe. Given the fact that it's open air, it does impose a sort of ethos which is more to do with the rough and tumble of comedy really. I've not seen a tragedy at the Globe, I can imagine it could work but I think it would need, that open-airness, as it were, takes away the sense of concentration that audiences are used to and need I think. Question: Have you sat in a variety of different places at the Globe? Answer: Yeah I think they're all wonderful and from where ever you are it's fantastic.
