Their first playhouse was the Theatre, but when a dispute with the landlord meant they couldn't use it, they moved to the Curtain theatre not far away. In 1599 a builder hired by the two main shareholders in The Lord Chamberlain's Men, star actor Richard Burbage and his brother Cuthbert dismantled the Theatre, which they owned and used the timbers to build a new playhouse called the Globe. They also bought an indoor theatre called the Blackfriars in 1608. In 1613, the Globe Theatre burned down but a new Globe Theatre was built almost immediately and was used by the King's Men for the rest of their existence.
