A theatre is a building and a person cannot become part of a building. What, do you think Shakespeare was a door or a railing? Shakespeare was part of a Theatrical Company, that is to say, a group of actors, called the Lord Chamberlain's Men and later The King's Men.
yes there were, William Shakespeare ----- Unfortunately, Shakespeare was a bit later than the Middle Ages, so he is not an especially good example. Hildegard of Bingen was one, however.

None. William Shakespeare died in 1616, Photography was invented about 300 years later.

From 1594 to his retirement from the world of the theatre, Shakespeare worked with the same theatre company, first called the Lord Chamberlain's Men and later the King's Men. The leader of the company was Richard Burbage.
There may be theatres in the world called The William Shakespeare Theatre, but if so none of them are famous. The Royal Shakespeare Theatre in Stratford-on-Avon, built in 1932 but renovated in 2010, and Shakespeare's Globe Theatre, built in 1997 in Southwark near the site of the original Globe, are both famous modern theatres named after Shakespeare. The Theatre most associate with Shakespeare is the Globe Theatre, which was built in 1599 after Shakespeare had been a playwright for about ten years and had already written some of his most famous and best-loved works including Romeo and Juliet, the eight Wars of the Roses plays, The Taming of the Shrew, and A Midsummer Night's Dream. His acting company had previously used the Theatre and later the Curtain for their home base, but they moved to the Globe after it was built. The First Globe saw the premieres of the great tragedies Hamlet, Macbeth, Othello and Lear, the Roman plays, the darker comedies and the Romances like the Tempest. Shakespeare was an actor through all of this time, retiring from the stage at about the same time as the First Globe was destroyed by fire in 1613. Although Shakespeare owned a share in the Globe, he was not a major shareholder nor was he the most important person in his acting company. None of his contemporaries would have regarded the Globe as William Shakespeare's theatre; it was clearly Richard Burbage's.
There actually is no theatre called "Shakespeare theater". William Shakespeare worked in a number of theatres over the course of his 25-year plus career. These include the Theatre, the Curtain, the Rose, Newington Butts, the Globe and the Blackfriars. Of these The Globe is the most famous, and there exists a replica, built in 1996, in London England called "Shakespeare's Globe Theatre". This theatre has been built very close to the site of the original Globe and Rose theatres. To mark the 400th anniversary of Shakespeare's death, a replica of the second Globe theatre (built in 1614 after the first one burned down during one of Shakespeare's plays) has been built in Auckland New Zealand and will later be dismantled. There are seven Globe Theatre replicas in the USA, two in Germany, one in Italy and one in Japan. The replica of the Rose Theatre used in the film Shakespeare in Love has been preserved with the hope that it can be used as a regular theatre; there is also a Rose Theatre replica in Michigan. There is a replica of the Fortune Theatre (erected in 1600 by the theatre company in competition with Shakespeare's) at the University of Western Australia, and other replicas of this same theatre in Japan and Poland. There is a working replica of the Blackfriars Theatre, a theatre which Shakespeare owned a part of, in Staunton, Virginia, USA.
