What else can I help you with?
Which theatre did William Shakespeare join in 1514?
None. This was fifty years before he was born. Nor did he ever "join a theatre". A theatre is a building you put on plays in--you cannot join it any more than you can join a bridge or a warehouse. What Shakespeare joined was an acting company, called the Lord Chamberlain's Men, and he did it when the company formed in 1594 (he was a charter member), eighty years after the date you propose.
What did Shakespeare do before he joined the theatre?
There are some lost years of Shakespeare before he began his acting and writing career. There are stories that have Shakespeare minding the horses outside of London theaters and another story that he was a schoolmaster. There is no proof that he was either of those things.
Im 15 years old and i really want to start acting I have been looking for a long time on how to start but it really isn't helping me any How do i start and where?
I would suggest looking for a community theatre where you live and asking when they have auditions. Perhaps a drama teacher at school will help you with this. If you are looking into ANY kind of acting go to http://www.exploretalent.com/ and http://hollywoodgroup.com/

Play acting is a natural part of being human. People have probably been doing it for as long as there have been people. The formal theatre using written plays, however, goes back only about 2300 years, to Ancient Greece.

What theatre did shakespeare co-own that later became the kings men?
There seems to be some confusion here. A theatre is a building where plays are performed. Shakespeare bought a share in one such theatre in 1599 and in a second one in 1608. As a part-owner, he got a tenth of any rentals paid to these theatres by any acting companies that played there.The thing was that the owners of the theatres all belonged to the same acting company, although not everyone in the acting company had shares in the theatre building. And this acting company was in fact the best customer of the two theatres. But the acting company had been formed five years before Shakespeare had an interest in any theatres, and Shakespeare was a charter member of the acting company when it formed as The Lord Chamberlain's Men in 1594. The same group reformed as The King's Men in 1603. To summarize:Theatre=building. Shakespeare owned a share in two (Globe and Blackfriars); there were about 7 sharers who had unequal shares (Richard and Cuthbert Burbage owned 25% each)Theatre or Acting Company=group of actors. Shakespeare owned a share in one, called The Lord Chamberlain's Men 1594-1603 and The King's Men after 1603; there were about 12 sharers each with an equal share.
Why was the Globe Theatre important in William Shakespeare's time?
It was the home of one of the two greatest acting companies in London, the King's Men (as they became 4 years after the Globe was built in 1599). It was the second largest theatre in London (The Fortune, built the next year, was the largest)
Did shakespeare only perform in the globe?
Absolutely not! Shakespeare had already been an actor for about 10 years before the Globe was built and had performed in The Theatre, The Curtain, Newington Butts and The Rose Theatre. He also performed regularly in the Blackfriars Theatre (an indoor theatre) after the King's Men opened it as their winter venue in 1608. In addition, the theatre companies were called upon to perform in places outside of the theatres, including the homes of the nobility, the royal palaces, large public halls like those in the Inns of Court (Twelfth Night was played there), and all kinds of temporary acting spaces created when the company went on tour.
