What was the name of Shakespeare second acting group?
We are not exactly sure which acting company Shakespeare started his career with: Queen Elizabeth's Men, Lord Strange's Men, Suffolk's Men, Pembroke's Men or Derby's Men have all been mentioned as possible acting companies Shakespeare worked for before 1594. He may have worked for all of them for all we know. But what we do know is that in 1594 Shakespeare was made a partner in a new company made up mostly of actors from Lord Strange's men, and it is this company which Shakespeare worked with for the next twenty years or so, although the personnel and even the name of the company changed from time to time. It is known usually as the Lord Chamberlain's Men or the King's Men, but it was throughout the same company. So it is impossible to say which acting group was Shakespeare's second, but it is certain that the Chamberlain's/King's Men was his last.

What theatre did shakespeare co-own that later became the kings men?
There seems to be some confusion here. A theatre is a building where plays are performed. Shakespeare bought a share in one such theatre in 1599 and in a second one in 1608. As a part-owner, he got a tenth of any rentals paid to these theatres by any acting companies that played there.The thing was that the owners of the theatres all belonged to the same acting company, although not everyone in the acting company had shares in the theatre building. And this acting company was in fact the best customer of the two theatres. But the acting company had been formed five years before Shakespeare had an interest in any theatres, and Shakespeare was a charter member of the acting company when it formed as The Lord Chamberlain's Men in 1594. The same group reformed as The King's Men in 1603. To summarize:Theatre=building. Shakespeare owned a share in two (Globe and Blackfriars); there were about 7 sharers who had unequal shares (Richard and Cuthbert Burbage owned 25% each)Theatre or Acting Company=group of actors. Shakespeare owned a share in one, called The Lord Chamberlain's Men 1594-1603 and The King's Men after 1603; there were about 12 sharers each with an equal share.
