What was the name of Shakespeares first theatre?

Answer 1

It was not the Globe Theater which was built in 1599 by which time Shakespeare had already been writing plays for over six years. The problem is that Shakespeare wrote his earliest plays before he joined the Burbage company so it is difficult to tell where those early companies, Lord Derby's, Lord Pembroke's and so on, performed them. There is some evidence that Henslowe's company performed them at the Rose, but they were also possibly played at the Theatre, the Curtain, Newington Butts, or the innyard theatres of the Bel Savage, the Bull, the Bell, and the Crossed Keys.

Where did Shakespeare first act? Any of the above, most probably at an innyard theatre.

Answer 2

There are no records to indicate with which company Shakespeare first worked. The list of suspects include Queen Elizabeth's Men, Strange's Men, Derby's Men, Pembroke's Men, and others. In 1594, he helped co-found the Lord Chamberlain's Men.
