Although we do not have complete records, we know that Shakespeare had many roles in the theatre. He was part owner of the Globe Theatre and a member of the Lord Chamberlain's men and later the King's men. That meant that he fulfilled the role of producer in the modern sense. He also was an actor. He may have been involved in the direction of the plays. He was the company's main playwright until he brought in John Fletcher to co-write plays with him and to take over from him when he retired. We do not know what jobs he did while learning the theatrical trade, but likely he did a variety of menial jobs during this period.
