With the reopening of the theatres in 1594, Shakespeare associated with Lord Chamberlain's company, who was the queens cousin. Christopher Marlowe was assassinated, Robert Greene and Thomas Nashe died as consequence of a desease, George Peele was ill, Thomas Lodge and Jhon Lyly stoped writting and George Chapman moved to another company. It was a great opportunity for Shakespeare and in two years time he wrotte lots of amazing plays which the public loved.

In 1596 Shakespeare's son died in an accident. In this time there was a great political and social change. This change concerned in the theatres, too. One day the shakespeare's company were arrested by the police during one performance. When they went out, the politicians only allowed the kids performance and for this reason, Shakespeare decided to write a performance called Henry IV which was joking with love, dignity, respect...Later, Shakespeare wrote more performance. They were about happiness, love's reflections...

In 1597 the Shakespeare's company had to go out the theatre where they worked and they built The Globe with illegaly wood that they stole in the old theatre. The Globe was a cut-price and fortuitous construction. The first performance that they did was Henry V. Shakespeare wasn't allowed to do more historical performance but after this they wrote Julius Caesar.

The Shakespeare's company represented Hamlet in front of the queen. For this time Shakespeare began to write stories without clarity.

The Queen Elisabeth died in 1603. The new king decided to appointed the Shakeaspeare's company, his own company but Shakespeare didn't like the idea and left it. King Lear and Othello were performance that Shakespeare wrote in this time.

The last years, Shakespeare wrote The Tempest and later, he retired. He began to live with his family in the biggest house inside a village.

answers

1. Lord chamberlains men was the first shakespeare's company

2.there was only 2

3.
Shakespeare's company only built the Globe because they could not use the special playhouse that their chief actor Richard Burbage's father had built for them in 1596, a roofed theatre inside the city, in Blackfriars.
James Burbage had a long history as a theatrical entrepreneur. In 1576 he built the first successful amphitheatre, known as The Theatre, in a London suburb. Twenty years later, when the lease on The Theatre's land was about to expire, he built the Blackfriars as its replacement. But the wealthy residents of Blackfriars got the government to block its use for plays, so his capital was locked up uselessly.
4.
It was built by two brothers, Cuthbert and Richard Burbage, who inherited its predecessor, The Theatre, from their father, James.
5.
Half the shares in the new theatre were kept by the Burbages. The rest were assigned equally to Shakespeare and other members of the Chamberlain's Men (the company of players who acted there), of which Richard Burbage was principal actor and of which Shakespeare had been a leading member since late 1594.
It was the lack of money to pay for it that produced the new consortium. The Burbage sons' inheritance was tied up in the Blackfriars, so extra finance was needed. That was why Shakespeare and another four of his fellows were made co-owners of the new Globe.
5.
The Theatre had closed, ostensibly for good, in 1597, and the owner of the land on which it stood threatened to pull the building down once the lease had expired. The Burbages and their associates anticipated the threat, however, and in late 1598 dismantled The Theatre and carried the materials to Bankside (a district of Southwark stretching for about half a mile west of London Bridge on the south bank of the River Thames).
Without The Theatre, the company had to rent a playhouse. Then at the end of 1598 they decided to build one for themselves. The shortage of cash made the consortium reluctant traditionalists, giving up the idea of an indoor theatre in the city and using the old Theatre's timbers and therefore the same basic auditorium shape for the new building. The old playhouse was one of their few remaining resources. They could not use it in situ because the lease had expired, so they dismantled it and took the timbers (illegally) to make the skeleton of their new amphitheatre. The Globe was a cut-price and fortuitous construction.
6. When the Globe was built , there were two other theatres in Southwark already. Which ones ? The Swan and The Rose
7. It was probably completed by the autumn of 1599 .
8.
In 1613, during a performance of Henry VIII, the thatch of the Globe was accidentally set alight by a cannon, set off to mark the King's entrance onstage in a scene at Cardinal Wolsey's palace. The entire theatre was destroyed within the hour.
9.
By June 1614 it had been rebuilt, this time with a tiled gallery roof and a circular shape.
10.
It was pulled down in 1644, two years after the Puritans closed all theatres, to make way for tenement dwellings.
11. .
Acting at the Globe was radically different from viewing modern Shakespeare on screen.
The plays were staged in the afternoons, using the light of day. Therefore, all references to weather or time of the day had to be given to the audience through the text.
The audience surrounded the stage on all sides. No scenery was used, except for occasional emblematic devices like a throne or a bed. It was almost impossible not to see the other half of the audience standing behind the players. Consequently much of the staging was metatheatrical, conceding the illusory nature of the game of playing, and making little pretense to stage realism .
