Who rebuilt the globe Theatre in 1614?

The acting company rebuilt the playhouse in 1614. The Globe lasted for another thirty years, until the English Civil war when an act of parliament declared all the theatres closed, in 1642.

Who closed the globe?

Like all the other theatres in London, the Globe was closed down by the Puritans in 1642. It was pulled down in 1644–45 (the commonly cited document dating the act to 15 April 1644 has been identified as a probable forgery) to make room for tenements.
