What group did William Shakespeare act with?

From 1594 on, Shakespeare performed with and wrote for the Lord Chamberlain's Men who in 1603 became the King's Men. Prior to 1594, he may have worked with one or more of the half dozen or so licensced companies: Pembroke's Men, Derby's Men, Strange's Men, or Queen Elizabeth's Men.


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.


Why did shakespeare and his playwrites call themselves the chamberlains men?

Shakespeare was not only a playwright; he was an actor. In those days the law said that a company of actors had to be sponsored by a noble person or they would be considered to be vagabonds and be arrested. Having a noble sponsor was therefore essential to be a legal theatre company, and in order to prove that you were legal (and to flatter your patron so you could keep his patronage) you referred to yourself as "the servants of the Lord . . ." whatever his name was. The Burbage company in 1594 obtained the patronage of Henry Carey, the Lord Chamberlain, so they were called The Lord Chamberlain's Men.
