Best Answer

Two theatres: The Globe and the Blackfriars.
He bought a share in two theatres--in the Globe in 1599 and the Blackfriars in 1608. Contrary to what many people think, Shakespeare did not have a large share in these theatres--about 12 per cent. But it was enough to make him rich.
Shakespeare owned a share in two theatres, The Globe, built in 1599, and the Blackfriars, which they purchased in 1608. He was one of the smaller shareholders, having a 12.5% share.
