The wood for the Globe theatre,came from "The Theatre", the original theatre built by James Burbage in 1576.Due to problems with the lease, Shakespeare's company,"The Chamberlain's Men", dismantled it plank by plank,stored them over the winter, and re-built the new"Globe Theatre" on the other side of the river in Bankside.
William Shakespeare was an actor before he became a playwright and poet. He was also involved in the business side of theatre as a shareholder in the Globe Theatre.
The lease on the land (that the Globe Theater was originally on) was up, and the landlord wasn't willing to rent the land out, so the members of the Globe basically dismantled the theater piece by piece and moved to the other side of the Thames! :)
The original Globe theater burned down centuries ago. An exact replica has been built in London on the south side of the Thames and enjoys regular productions. It is in excellent condition.
It used to be on the other side but Shakespeare's rent was raised so he moved it over to the south.
