The Lord Chamberlain's Men were a prominent theatrical company in England during the late 16th and early 17th centuries. Founded in 1594, they were patronized by Henry Carey, the Lord Chamberlain, and became one of the leading acting troupes of the Elizabethan era. William Shakespeare was a key member and playwright for the company, and many of his most famous works were performed by them. They later became known as the King's Men after King James I ascended the throne in 1603.
