The Globe Theater was built in 1599 by the Lord Chamberlain's Men, the name of a group of actors and one actor/writer (William Shakespeare). There were a number of very famous actors in the Chamberlain's Men, including Richard Burbage, who played all of Shakespeare's major tragic roles (except, perhaps, Lear), William Kempe (some of Shakespeare's broader fools, plus Falstaff), Robert Armin, who replaced Kempe and played some of the more subtle fools, and others who were "sharers," meaning that they were like modern partners in a partnership, sharing in the company's profits.
The company would hire in other actors for various roles in various shows.

∙ 10y agoAlthough we cannot be exactly sure what style of acting they employed, they had no amplification so they had to have good big voices that carried well. The audience focused as much on what they heard as what they saw, so the actors put a lot of energy into projecting their voices and making their enunciation clear, far more than they did on facial expressions which most of the audience would not see. Hamlet's advice to the players in Hamlet Act 3 Scene 2 gives some idea of the issues affecting performance in the Elizabethan and Jacobean era.
