The Globe Theatre was destroyed by fire in 1613. A replacement built the next year was destroyed by the Puritans in 1643. "Shakespeare's Globe" a modern reconstruction of the Globe Theatre was built in 1997 and hosts regular performances. Patrons can eat and drink during performances, food and drink are sold in the theatre before performances and during the interval. While food and drink are perhaps enjoyable during a performance, a the cushions, which are also obtained from vendors, are a necessity. The wooden benches become quite uncomfortable without them.
Sure, children are welcome at most performances at Shakespeare's Globe Theatre. They often have school tours there. You are aware that the name "Shakespeare's Globe theatre" can only refer to the theatre built in 1997 and can never refer to the one built in 1599, aren't you?
James Burbage did not build the Globe; he built a theatre called The Theatre, which was the first successful purpose-built playhouse in England. His sons Richard and Cuthbert built the Globe Theatre in order (of course) to present public performances.
Posters (playbills) were distributed and displayed to advertise performances.
Plays were not performed at night in the Globe Theatre (that is, the one Shakespeare owned shares in), because it was too large to be lit with artificial light, and being an open-air theatre, it would get cold at night, even in summer. Plays were generally performed at the Globe in the late afternoon.The Blackfriars, the other theatre which Shakespeare owned shares of, was an indoor theatre and was lit with candles. Plays could be, and were, performed in the evening.
