Best Answer

Yes, well, a part owner. Shakespeare was one of a group of men who held shares in the theatrical company The Lord Chamberlain's Men. The theatrical company was a business, its purpose being to make money by selling entertainment (in the form of plays) to the people of London. As in most partnerships, if it made money, the partners (including Shakespeare) divided the profit.
