The Globe Theatre was a timber-frame building. The Kings Men (Shakespeare's company) had originally performed in The Theatre, a timber-frame building which was custom built for them by James Burbage around 1576. When the original land lease expired the owner of the site where The Theatre stood (Giles Allen) threatened to demolish the building. James Burbage had died, and the Kings Men were now managed by James' son Richard Burbage. Sometime over Christmas 1598/9 Richard Burbage and some labourers disassembled The Theatre's timber structure (without warning Giles Allen), moved the timbers across the Thames, and re-assembled the building with the new name of The Globe. There were several legal suits from Allen (who was a bit annoyed), but they petered out eventually. And the Kings Men had a theatre again.

What was Shakespeare's name of the theater where his acting company performed?
Shakespeare's acting company performed in a number of theatres. When they were first formed they intended to use the Theatre Playhouse built by James Burbage, but due to plague they had a stint at the Newington Butts theatre, after which they returned to the Theatre. Burbage and his landlord got into a quarrel and the Chamberlain's Men got locked out of the Theatre so they moved to another Burbage theatre, The Curtain, which was not far away. After James Burbage's death his sons Richard and Cuthbert were fed up with having their money tied up in the unusable Theatre, so they had it torn down and its timbers used to make a new playhouse south of the river Thames. This new playhouse was the famous Globe built in 1599, and it became the new home of the Chamberlain's Men. In 1608 the company, now called the King's Men, obtained permission to perform in the indoor theatre, the Blackfriars, another Burbage theatre which had previously been used to house troupes of boy players. The Blackfriars had the advantage of being usable during bad weather, in the evening, and during the winter when there was little light or warmth outside, as well as having higher ticket prices and it complemented the Globe. Indeed we owe our knowledge of Shakespeare's plays to the Blackfriars, since when the Globe was destroyed by fire in 1613, duplicate copies of all of the King's Men's scripts were safely stored at the Blackfriars and survived.
Why was the original globe theatre built?
it was built because there where lots of actors with no where to preform. ---- Commercial theatre in England began sometime in the 1570's (or possibly a little earlier) at makeshift venues such as the Bull Inn in London (which had a balcony and a yard where plays could be performed). At first the income one could get from being an actor or writing plays was unreliable, but as people got used to the idea of going to watch a play for entertainment it became easier to make good money consistently. (Theatre between the 1570's and the 1590's grew from a fringe activity to big business; - the way pop music did between the 1950's and the 1970's). By the 1590's there were two big players companies in London, both making very good money. James Burbage - a builder by trade - managed the Lord Chamberlain's Men in the north of the City; Philip Henslowe - an entertainment impresario and banker - had the Admirals Men in the south. In 1576 James Burbage - the builder - realised that no-one had ever purpose-built somewhere to put on plays. Since building was his trade he designed and erected the first playhouse in the world. There was no name for such a thing, so he invented one: he called it The Theatre. The Theatre was a huge success. James Burbage made a fortune out of it, and passed both it and the player company on to his second son Richard Burbage. When the lease on the site of the Theatre expired the landowner threatened to pull it down (James Burbage had died in the meantime). The Theatre was a timber frame-constructed building, so Richard Burbage (who also knew a bit about building) got a bunch of labourers together over Christmas 1598/9, disassembled the timber frame, ferried the wood across the Thames to Southwark, and re-erected the old Theatre as the new Globe.
