What is the name of William Shakespeare's theatre in London?

During Shakespeare's lifetime, his plays were performed at at least six public theatres in London: The Rose in 1592-93, The Theatre in 1594-6, The Curtain in 1596-1599, The first Globe in 1599-1613, the second Globe in 1613-1616, and the Blackfriars in 1608-1616, as well as being performed on makeshift stages in country venues, in people's houses, in public halls, at court, and even on board ship. After Shakespeare's death in 1616 his plays continued to be played at the second Globe and the Blackfriars (as well as the makeshift venues) to 1642, when all theatre was banned. After the Restoration, Shakespeare's plays were performed at the Drury Lane and Covent Garden theatres, and later, at just about all of the theatres in the world.

Which globe do you mean? Are you talking about the new Globe Theatre (note capital letters) in London? From memory it opened about 12 years ago, but that's a bit hazy. The old one was around in Shakespeare's time, it started about 1580.
