Not very strong. Shakespeare may well have played the Rose before 1594 when he definitely joined with the Burbages and played Burbage theatres.
You see, different entrepreneurs owned different theatres. James Burbage, and on his death, his sons Richard and Cuthbert owned the first successful purpose-built playhouse in London, The Theatre. When they had a dispute with the landlord, they moved to another Burbage theatre, the Curtain. Burbage also owned the Blackfriars and the younger Burbages would go on to build the Globe.
The Rose, on the other hand, was owned by Phillip Henslowe. Henslowe also owned the theatre at Newington Butts, and later built The Fortune. Fortunately we have Henslowe's business notebook (usually called his diary)
Henslowe records that Lord Strange's Men played at the Rose, on March 3, 1591, taking in 3 pounds, 16 shillings and eightpence. The play was called "harey the vj"--could this be Shakespeare's Henry VI? Maybe, and maybe Shakespeare was playing with Strange's Men in March 1591.
Also, the Earl of Sussex's Men were playing the Rose in January of 1594 and the play they put on on the 28th was "titus & ondronicus", maybe Shakespeare's Titus Andronicus. Maybe Shakespeare was with Sussex's Men just before the Lord Chamberlain's Men were formed.

There actually is no theatre called "Shakespeare theater". William Shakespeare worked in a number of theatres over the course of his 25-year plus career. These include the Theatre, the Curtain, the Rose, Newington Butts, the Globe and the Blackfriars. Of these The Globe is the most famous, and there exists a replica, built in 1996, in London England called "Shakespeare's Globe Theatre". This theatre has been built very close to the site of the original Globe and Rose theatres. To mark the 400th anniversary of Shakespeare's death, a replica of the second Globe theatre (built in 1614 after the first one burned down during one of Shakespeare's plays) has been built in Auckland New Zealand and will later be dismantled. There are seven Globe Theatre replicas in the USA, two in Germany, one in Italy and one in Japan. The replica of the Rose Theatre used in the film Shakespeare in Love has been preserved with the hope that it can be used as a regular theatre; there is also a Rose Theatre replica in Michigan. There is a replica of the Fortune Theatre (erected in 1600 by the theatre company in competition with Shakespeare's) at the University of Western Australia, and other replicas of this same theatre in Japan and Poland. There is a working replica of the Blackfriars Theatre, a theatre which Shakespeare owned a part of, in Staunton, Virginia, USA.
