Shakespeare's theatres, particularly the Globe Theatre, were closed in 1592 due to the Bubonic Plague, which led to the shutdown of public performances in London. They remained closed intermittently until 1594, when the plague subsided. The theatres faced further closures during the English Civil War, with a final closure in 1642 when the Puritan government banned theatrical performances altogether.
