Shakespeare's Globe evacuated as firework lands in middle of a packed audience
Briefly

London's Shakespeare Globe Theatre was evacuated mid-performance after a firework landed in the audience during Antony and Cleopatra. The misfired firework came from a nearby Thames fireworks display, possibly triggered by football fans celebrating an Algerian club anniversary.
Guests described confusion and tension as red lights filled the sky, leading to the play's interruption. Audience and actors alike were startled, with attendees moved to the basement for safety for 20 minutes before being allowed to exit with the show inevitably canceled.
