The Black Friar's Theater

This was the theater that Shakespeare company moved to in about 1608.  The main difference between in and The Globe was the fact that it was an indoor theater.  This provided Shakespeare with many opportunities to play with effects like the storm in the tempest and the other tricks, such as the buffet that Ariel conjures and then makes disappear.  This is important because it goes along with the theater becoming more of a visual experience.  Shakespeare was able to manipulate more visually while hearing less and less.  The audience would only see the theater; therefore, they would only be able to see the story and get caught into the effects.  It creates a danger of becoming like Miranda and not being able to hear anymore.
