The Lord Chamberlain's Men did not buy the Globe. They disassembled The Theatre and reassembled it as The Globe.
Shakespeare bought share in a theatre group where worked for five years. The name of the theatre is Globe theatre.
People stood because they could not afford to buy tickets to the part of the theatre where there were seats. Instead they stood in "the pit" immediately in front of the stage and were called "groundlings" because they stood on the ground.
William Shakespeare did not buy the Globe Theatre from James Burbage or anyone else. He was never the sole owner of the Globe. He was never even a majority shareholder. He never held more than one-eighth, when the Burbage brothers owned half between them. Anyone who tells you that he purchased the Globe Theatre from James Burbage in 1599 is demonstrably wrong. The Globe was only built in 1599, by Peter Street for Richard and Cuthbert Burbage, who never sold their controlling interest in it.
They were called "Groundlings, or Commoners". they paid one penny in order to stand near the stage. Since the Globe Theatre didn't have a roof, the "Groundlings" were not protected from the rain. Higher paying guests sat in the galleries which had 3 levels.

Two of them: the Blackfriars and the Globe.

William Shakespeare bought globe theatre from the original owner James Burbage in 1599
Yes. You could buy fish or chicken on a stick to eat, wine or water to drink, and tomatos to throw at bad actors. They may have sold more but that's what I found.
Shakespeare invested in the Globe Theatre in 1599, five years after he invested in the Acting Company The Lord Chamberlain's Men. The suggestion that he squirrelled away his money for those five years so he could buy a share in the theatre building is ridiculous, because, first, nobody knew five years earlier that the Burbages would need investors in the Globe since they had two perfectly good theatres already, and second, Shakespeare had a lot more money than he put into the Globe. In fact, two years before investing in the Globe, he spent a whack of money buying the second-largest house in Stratford-upon-Avon for his wife to live in.
Shakespeare did not build the Globe Theatre and did not get the wood. The carpenter's name was Peter Street, and the timber came from the old Theatre Playhouse, the property of Richard and Cuthbert Burbage. Although the Burbages brought the wood and most of the money, Shakespeare kicked in some cash to buy plaster, nails, paint, etc.
You can buy them online from sites like amazon, eBay and FatBrainToys. You could also buy them from local stores like Target, and Walmart. It would be better to buy from the stores as you don't have to wait for the globe to arrive.
