The Gielgud Theatre used to be called the Globe Theatre (from 1909 to 1994). But my guess is that's not the Globe Theatre you are thinking of. You probably are mixing up the Globe Theatre (a building where Shakespeare and others acted and which never changed its name) and the Lord Chamberlain's Men (a company or group of actors which performed in a number of different buildings, the Globe theatre included, which changed its name a number of times).
