William Shakespeare's plays were performed in 'The Globe Theatre'.
The Globe. Theatre, built in 1599. The others: the Theatre, the Curtain, the Rose, Newington Butts, the Fortune, the Red Bull, the Blackfriars, the Cockpit, the Whitefriars, the Hope, the Swan, none of them start with the letter G.
No, Shakespeare and his work were very popular during his lifetime. His plays were one of the reasons his theatre company became the top company in England.

Watch Shakespearean plays (during Shakespeare's lifetime.)
William Shakespeare's plays were performed in 'The Globe Theatre'.
Nowhere near. He was well-known in the London theatre crowd during his lifetime, but now he is known to everyone all over the world. Nobody was that famous back then.

The Rose, The Swan, The Hope, The Fortune, The Theatre, The Curtain, Newington Butts, and the Blackfriars, take your pick. Shakespeare performed at the Theatre, The Curtain, The Globe, the Blackfriars and possibly the Rose.
That would be the Globe. None of the others started with G.
Reasonably so. He died quite well off, and was respected as a playwright at least by others in the theatre community.
On June 29, 1613, a performance of Shakespeare's Henry VIII (also known as All is True) was halted when the theatre caught fire and burned to the ground. This is the only recorded example of a performance of a Shakespeare play being interrupted during his lifetime.
Theatres, mostly. During Shakespeare's lifetime they were performed at the Rose, Newington Butts Theatre, The Theatre, The Curtain, The Globe and the Blackfriars, and afterward at Drury Lane, Covent Garden, the Old Vic, the National Theatre, The Shakespeare Memorial Theatre, and at Shakespeare's Globe among many others. They have also been performed in private houses, at court, on ships, in gardens, in schoolhouses, village halls and, to tell the truth, just about everywhere.
