I’ve seen Julius Caesar and King Lear here, and they were both great. It’s an exact replica of the globe of shakespeare’s time, so you can’t really get any more authentic for watching shakespeare. You can get a seated ticket (in which case it is advisable to pay the extra £1 to hire a cushion) or, if you’re on a tight budget, you can stand at the foot of the stage, which is a really great experience too, and gets you very close to the actors. Often there are actors interspersed through the crowd at the foot of the stage, and players often enter and exit through the crowds. Really great place to experience shakespeare and some elizabethan history.
