Shakespeare held shares in two different theatres, but he was not the major shareholder in either of them. It is therefore misleading to speak of "Shakespeare's Theare" as if he actually owned it. The theatre most associated with Shakespeare is the first Globe, which was built in 1599, when Shakespeare was about halfway through his career. It was built by Peter Street and was mostly owned by Richard and Cuthbert Burbage. The Burbages also owned the Blackfriars Theatre in which Shakespeare invested. The Lord Chamberlain's Men began using it in 1608. Other theatres which we know Shakespeare to be associated with include the Curtain and Theatre which were used by The Lord Chamberlain's Men between 1594 and 1599.
