In london, all the theatres were closed down between 1593 and 1594 due to the plague. I hope this helps
The Puritans closed down the Globe because they believed that theatres were anti-religious and a place of sin. Many other theatres were closed down as well.

Shakespeare was part owner of two theatres: The Globe and The Blackfriars. They were closed by the government during times of plague. All of the theatres were closed down in 1642 by the Puritan government because they thought plays had a bad effect on people. But of course by that time Shakespeare had been dead for 26 years and he had no interest in any theatres.
In the time of Shakespeare, the outdoor theatres closed after the afternoon show, about 6 p.m. They also closed for the winter, during inclement weather, and due to outbreaks of infectious disease. The indoor theatres could stay open in the winter and bad weather because they did not depend on sunlight. They still had to close on orders of the health department though. After Shakespeare's time, in 1642, all the theatres in England were closed on the orders of Parliament and did not reopen until about 1660.

Summer is a closed syllable word.
There is no one theatre which can be identified as "Shakespeare's theatre". Shakespeare performed in a number of different theatres, although most particularly in the two he owned a share in. In any case, the main reasons for theatre closures applied to all the theatres whether they had something to do with Shakespeare or not. There were two of these: all London theatres were periodically closed for a relatively short time for health reasons, and all London theatres were permanently closed in 1642 by law.
