If you are talking about William Shakespeare, he retired from acting about 400 years ago. He was involved with several acting companies in his early career before 1594, including Derby's, Strange's and Pembroke's, but in 1594 he became a charter member of a new company called at various times Lord Hunsdon's Men, The Lord Chamberlain's Men and the King's Men, and he stayed with them until his retirement from acting.

The Burbage company, which became the Lord Chamberlain's Men in 1594, after a plague year had caused a shakeup of the acting companies, started acting in the Theatre, then due to a dispute with their landlord moved to the nearby Curtain until the Globe was built in 1599. From 1594 this company had the exclusive use of Shakespeare's plays. Before 1594, Shakespeare sold his plays to whoever would buy them, and they were played in various venues.

The Lord Chamberlain's Men was an acting company formed in 1594. William Shakespeare was one of its charter members. Most of its partners had previously been partners in other acting companies, particularly Lord Strange's Men, which had gone broke due to the long theatre closures in 1593-4. Apparently this was not true of Shakespeare; as far as we can tell this was the first time he was a partner in an acting company.
