Were flags used to advertise shakespeare shows?

Yes, flags were used to advertise Shakespeare's plays during the Elizabethan era. The Globe Theatre, where many of his works were performed, would raise colored flags to indicate the type of play being shown that day—black for tragedies, white for comedies, and red for histories. This system allowed audiences to quickly identify what kind of performance to expect, serving as an early form of advertising for the shows.

What does redblack and white flags mean in a theaters Shakespeare?

The story is well-entrenched that they would fly different coloured flags at the Globe Theatre to tell the patrons what kind of play was being played: red for history, white for comedy, and black for tragedy. The problem is that the division of the plays into these neat categories did not take place at the time they were first performed, and many plays do not easily fall into these categories. There is no contemporary record of this practice. There is record of flags being used at the theatres, but no mention of their colour. I think this story is a myth.


What was the purpose of the flag on the top of the roof of the globe theatre?

The Globe (and all Elizabethan theaters) used flags to advertise their play that day. The Globe used white flags to advertise that the play performed that day would be a comedy or of a light subject. Black flags advertised a tragedy, or play with dark subject matter such as death. Red flags indicated a play associated with blood, usually historical. Sometimes flags with pictures of the next scheduled pay would be flown.
