Yes. Court records show that The King's Men performed a number of times before King James and his family, all of whom were strong patrons of the theatre. In particular, the records of the Master of the King's Revels Edward Tilney between Nov. 1, 1604 and Easter 1605 show that the King's Men performed eleven times before the king, including the Shakespeare plays Henry V, Merchant of Venice, Othello, Merry Wives of Windsor, Measure for Measure, The Comedy of Errors and Love's Labour's Lost. The King liked The Merchant of Venice so much that he asked for it to be played for him a second time. Tilney identifies the "poet who made the plays" as "Shaxberd".
