Two of the most notable actors in Lord Chamberlain's men were Richard Burbage and Will Kempe. Some of the others were Will Shakespeare, of course, Augustine Phillips, Thomas Pope, John Heminges and Henry Condell. All actors During Shakespeare's time were men because it was illegal for women to act or step on the set of a play.

Why did the lord chamberlains theatre change to the kings men theatre in 1594?

It didn't. The Lord Chamberlain's Men was not a theatre. It was a company of actors and other men who put on plays. They were formed in 1594. They took their name from their patron--by law, acting companies of this kind had to have a patron--who was the Lord Chamberlain. In 1603, they got a new patron and a new name, although it was still the same group of actors. Their new patron was King James I, and so their new name was The King's Men. There never was such a thing as the King's Men Theatre.
