What type of shows did they perform in the globe theatre?

The Globe Theatre, unlike some of the other theatres, was used exclusively to put on plays. Other theatres, like the Hope and the Swan, sometimes had bearbaiting and other types of entertainment. However, contrary to popular supposition, they put on a broad variety of plays, and not just plays by Shakespeare. Shakespeare wrote no more than two or three new plays a year (after all, his total output was 38 plays in a 23-year career), yet the theatre companies had to premiere a new play every week or so. That means that most of the plays they put on were not by Shakespeare.

What is the name of one person that was thought of as writing William Shakespeare's plays?

Apart from William Shakespeare? The truth is that everyone without exception in Shakespeare's days and 99% of people now know that Shakespeare wrote his plays. The other one percent have weird notions that someone else wrote Shakespeare's plays. In the 19th century it was Francis Bacon. Nowadays it is more likely to be Edward de Vere. It doesn't matter because it is impossible that Bacon or de Vere or anyone other than Shakespeare wrote them.

What was unique about william Shakespeare's plays?

They are not really unique. There are many many plays by Shakespeare's contemporaries, many of which are better than the worst of Shakespeare's plays. Shakespeare was just one of a large number of people writing plays. But what history has shown is that Shakespeare, when he was on his game, was a far better playwright than any of his contemporaries and anyone else before or since. He was not unique, but he was and is the best.
