The Lord Chamberlain's Men was an acting company formed in 1594. William Shakespeare was one of its charter members. Most of its partners had previously been partners in other acting companies, particularly Lord Strange's Men, which had gone broke due to the long theatre closures in 1593-4. Apparently this was not true of Shakespeare; as far as we can tell this was the first time he was a partner in an acting company.
We are not really sure about which company or companies he may have become involved in before 1594. In that year Shakespeare and a number of other actors under the leadership of Richard Burbage formed a new company under the patronage of the Lord Chamberlain, Henry Carey, called the Lord Chamberlain's Men.
The company he belonged to from 1594 to the end of his career was known variously as The Lord Chamberlain's Men, Hunsdon's Men, and the King's Men.
Shakespeare helped to co-found the Lord Chamberlain's Men in 1594. It became the King's Men in 1603.
The company with which Shakespeare was associated was variously called Lord Hunsdon's Men (1594), Lord Chamberlain's Men (1594-1603), and the King's Men (1603-1642).
Shakespeare was a founding member of the Lord Chamberlain's Men in 1594, not 1596.
Shakespeare was one of the charter members of The Lord Chamberlain's Men but he was not the leader of the company and cannot be viewed as its founder. The leader of the company was Richard Burbage; Shakespeare was just one of the guys.
Around about 1594, when it was chartered as the Lord Chamberlain's Men. Shakespeare was a charter member.
If you are talking about William Shakespeare, he retired from acting about 400 years ago. He was involved with several acting companies in his early career before 1594, including Derby's, Strange's and Pembroke's, but in 1594 he became a charter member of a new company called at various times Lord Hunsdon's Men, The Lord Chamberlain's Men and the King's Men, and he stayed with them until his retirement from acting.
Shakespeare did not join a theater company in 1534. He wasn't born until 1564. In 1594, he joined a theater club called Lord Chamberlain's Men.
They were an Elizabethan and Jacobean acting company who were around from 1594 to 1642. Their most famous members were William Shakespeare and Richard Burbage.
From 1594 to his retirement from the world of the theatre, Shakespeare worked with the same theatre company, first called the Lord Chamberlain's Men and later the King's Men. The leader of the company was Richard Burbage.
It was called the Lord Chamberlain's Men to 1603, and thereafter The King's Men until Shakespeare retired in 1613. I don't know where you get 1608 from.
