I only got 4/10, of course I got #1 right because I switched it after reading #9 so really I only got 3/10!

7/10. I was really torn about the "Shakespeare as actor" one, and got it wrong....
It helps that I have BEEN to the 'new' Globe in London, as well as the New Olde Globe in San Diego, and a Renaissance reenactor!
The site of the original Globe Theatre is currently a car park on the south side of the Thames, a few hundred feet from the site of the 'new' Globe Theatre. Which is beautiful!
