No, none of them did. The ones that came closest was the Globe, which was owned by a group of partners most of whom were also partners in the Lord Chamberlain's Men, and the Red Bull, built and operated by the leading partners of the Queen's Men. The Fortune Theatre was owned by the leading actor of the day, Ned Alleyn, not by his company, the Admiral's Men. Later, he sold a share in it to the manager of the Admiral's Men, the impressario Philip Henslowe. Henslowe was already the owner of the Rose Theatre and Newington Butts Theatre. The Theatre (the first purpose-built playhouse) and The Curtain were both owned by James Burbage and passed on to his sons Richard and Cuthbert, who were also part owners of the Globe (which was built from pieces of The Theatre). The Swan was owned by Francis Langley, who was not part of any theatre group. The Hope was owned by Henslowe and Jacob Meade as partners.

The Blackfriars was originally owned by the Burbages; later they sold shares to other King's Men partners, as they did with the Globe. The other indoor theatres, which started appearing after Shakespeare's retirement in imitation of the Blackfriars, were generally owned by a single entrepreneur, such as the Cockpit (Christopher Beeston), the Whitefriars (Drayton and Woodford), Porter's Hall Theatre (Philip Rosseter), and Salisbury Court (Gunnell and Blagrave, later Richard Heton)
