It is impossible to tell. They did not, unfortunately, keep a record of what plays they put on. It is very likely that at least one play by someone other than Shakespeare is among them. Julius Caesar, which we know was performed around this time, is probably on the list.

Was the globe theater the first theater in England?

No, not at all. Plays had been performed formerly at rich people's houses, town halls, innyards and the like, but the first structure in England built for the purpose of putting on plays was called The Red Lion, which was put up on a farm near Whitechapel in 1567, 32 years before the Globe was built. The location was not well-chosen and the theatre was not a success, and appears to have closed after a year. The proprietor, however, thought it was still a good idea and 9 years later brought his brother-in-law James Burbage in to construct a new theatre in Shoreditch in 1576. This time The Theatre (that is what it was called) was a success. Burbage followed up with The Curtain nearby the next year. The Rose playhouse was built by impresario Philip Henslowe in 1587 in Southwark as was the theatre at Newington Butts in St. George's Fields, Surrey around 1580. A second Southwark theatre, the Swan, was built in 1595. For legal reasons the Theatre was closed in the mid-1590s, and James Burbage's sons Richard and Cuthbert decided to demolish it and re-use to the timbers for a new theatre to be built in 1599, which was the Globe, the seventh theatre in England.Documentary evidence shows that Shakespeare performed in the Theatre, Curtain, and Newington Butts during the 10-ish years of his career before the Globe was built. His plays were performed in these three theatres as well. Some people speculate that the Rose and Swan also saw Shakespeare act and his plays performed, but there is no documentation for it.

How many plays of William Shakespeares were performed in the globe theatre?

i cant find the answer any where


Where did shakespeare perform his first plays?

Since we know that Shakespeare's plays were being performed as early as 1592 and the Globe Theater was not built until 1599, we know that it was not in the Globe Theatre. It might have been in James Burbage's Theatre, but it could just as easily have been in one of the other theatres, if it was performed by another group of actors. We do not even know what Shakespeare's "first play" was, or whether it was ever performed. It might have been so bad that it got chucked out without ever having been acted.

Was shakespeare virtually alone in his interest in drama during his time?

Absolutely not. The Globe Theatre regularly (and by this I mean daily) drew 3000 people to its performances, and there were a half-dozen or more playhouses as big as or (in the case of The Fortune) bigger than the Globe. That means 10 or 20 thousand people watching plays every day in a London which was much much smaller than it is now. That meant that there had to be theatre companies in each theatre and each company was looking for new material. Shakespeare was not the only person writing plays in his day; he was one of dozens. Kyd, Marlowe, Jonson, Greene, Massinger, Middleton, Webster, Beaumont, and Fletcher are just the most famous of these playwrights.
