The 2002 production of Twelfth Night by Shakespeare's Globe Theatre Company is one of the most successful productions since the theatre's opening in 1996. Not only it played to the full house throughout its entire run but also it received a number of theatre awards that year, to critical acclaim for theatrical achievement. The production was originally staged in January at the Middle Temple Hall, one of the existing Inns of Court in London, to celebrate the 400th anniversary of the play, before opening at the Globe in May with a major cast change. By comparing Twelfth Night at the Middle Temple Hall and the Globe, this paper explores the following issues: the significance of Shakespearean performances in historical sites, physical conditions of theatre space and their effects on performances, and the new possibility of playing Shakespeare at the reconstructed Globe. The paper briefly refers to the company's another example of 'original practices' production, the 2004 production of Measure for Measure at the Hampton Court and the Globe.
