Yes. His plays were primarily intended to be acted, not read. Although we do not have particularly extensive performance records of the plays, it is clear that all of the plays were performed before they were printed. The printed copies often said which playing companies had performed them. This remains true of playscripts to this day.
Because there are fewer records than we would like to see, there are no records of performances of some of the plays during Shakespeare's lifetime. However, even if there were a play that was not performed then, it has certainly been performed since.

There is probably no one theatre where all of Shakespeare's plays were performed. You may be thinking of the Globe Theatre. The Globe Theatre was built in 1599 and probably saw all of the plays Shakespeare wrote after that date. But Shakespeare had already been a playwright for seven or eight years before the Globe was built. If any of his plays written before 1599 were played at the Globe they would have to have been revivals. Some of his old plays may have been revived, but all of them? Unlikely.
