We know that he was an actor, playwright and shareholder in a theatrical company called the Lord Chamberlain's Men (later the King's Men) from 1594 to his retirement in 1613. He may have belonged to other companies like Lord Strange's or Lord Pembroke's before 1594 or he may have been a hired actor. There are only two plays which we know for sure he acted in: Ben Jonson's Sejanus and Every Man in his Humour. He also acted in his own plays (The First Folio says so), but we don't know exactly which ones.
