As you approach the theaters you will notice that they all seem to be round; in fact, they are polygonal—the Globe is twenty-sided, the Rose fourteen-sided. Whichever one you choose, you can expect to queue with two thousand other people to get in. You will see people standing in hats with pipes in hand, and women in their headdresses, all chatting, with an eye open for people they know. Entrance costs a penny: this allows you to stand in the yard in front of the stage, an uncovered area (hence the need for a hat). The purpose of the second-person point of view in the excerpt is to emphasize how out of place the readers would feel in the past. make the readers feel like part of the exciting theater experience. distance the readers from the historical events described. make the readers understand how boring a play could be.
