The first Globe Theatre was built with materials and timber taken from the first 'Theatre' in 1599 when William Shakespeare and the Chamberlain's men were forced to leave because the Puritan owner, Giles Allen, refused to re-new the lease. It only took six months to build. Richard and Cuthbert Burbage, who had owned the Theatre were the majority owners of the Globe.
The first Globe burned down in 1613 but a second Globe was rebuilt on the same spot and was ready for use in 1614. It was torn down in 1644 to make way for housing.
Shakespeare's Globe, a modern replica of the first Globe, was built in 1997.

∙ 7y agoThe Globe theatre was built in 1599 by the Lord Chamberlain's Men, of which Shakespeare worked for. It was later burnt to the ground by the Great Fire of London In 1666. In 1614, the Globe theatre was rebuilt and was closed in 1642. Because it was demolished, a modern version was constructed in 1997 named Shakespeare's Globe. Shakespeare was not involved in the building of any of them, although he did invest in the first one. It was built by a man called Street.
Shakespeare's Globe Theatre was completed in 1997 and is a replica of the Globe Theatre built by Peter Street in the early period of 1599 at the behest of a group of shareholders, the majority shares of which were held by the Burbage brothers, Richard and Cuthbert. The name "Shakespeare's Globe Theatre" should only be used for the modern replica.
