Why was the globe theater closed in 1592 1603 1609?

The Globe Theatre was not closed in 1592 because it wasn't built until 1599. There were plague outbreaks in 1603 and 1608 which caused the theatres to close. This plague was pneumonic plague, not bubonic as is often incorrectly stated.

What is the name of the theater in which shakespeare performed his plays and was partial owner?

Shakespeare did not build any theatres. He was not a builder. He did not arrange for any theatres to be built either. When his friends Richard and Cuthbert Burbage found that there were legal problems with using the theatre (called The Theatre) which their father had left them in his will, they had it dismantled and moved the main timbers south of the River Thames, where they were handed over to the builder Peter Street. However, the new theatre needed plaster and flooring and a number of other things which could not be brought from the old theatre, and the Burbages did not have enough to pay. They turned to the actors in their company and offered them shares in the profits of the theatre in exchange for an investment. Four members of the company stepped up to the bar with money and got a share in the theatre, which was called the Globe Theatre, as a result. Shakespeare's share was 12.5%. When the Burbages refurbished their indoor theatre the Blackfriars Shakespeare bought into that as well.

Where did William Shakespeare usually perform?

Although we associate Shakespeare as an actor with the large public theatres, these were only open in the summer and in plague season not at all. We can identify three main groups of venues:Large public theatres in London, only in summer, late spring and early fall when they were not closed for plague. We cannot be sure which companies Shakespeare was with before 1594, so we do not know which theatres they played in, but after 1594 we know he played Newington Butts, the Theatre, the Curtain, and after 1599 the Globe.Indoor venues in the winter time, early spring and late fall. These included the houses of noblemen, halls in the inns of court, and of course the royal court. The courts often sponsored plays in the days following Christmas, but King James, who unlike Queen Elizabeth was a real fan of drama, had plays all through the summer, usually by the King's Men. In addition, an indoor theatre, the Blackfriars, was opened by members of the company in 1609 so the company could perform steadily all winter, but by this time Shakespeare was at the end of his acting career.When all theatres in London were closed for the plague, the core players of the company would go on tour with stripped-down versions of their plays, which they would perform at improvised country venues like guildhalls and innyards. Shakespeare was on such a tour in Kent at the time Hamnet died in 1596.
