 James Burbage - LoveToKnow 1911
In 1576, having secured the lease of land at Shoreditch, Burbage erected there the successful house which was known for twenty years as The Theatre from the fact that it was the first ever erected in London.
At the time of his father's death, a lawsuit was in progress against the lessor from whom James Burbage held the land on which The Theatre stood.
This suit was continued by Richard and his brother Cuthbert, and in 1569 they pulled down the Shoreditch house and used the materials to erect the Globe theatre, famous for its connexion with Shakespeare.

 Prebend of Hurstbourne & Burbage
A Saxon Charters of 961 and 968AD describe Burbage as then lying within the parish of Great Bedwyn and being served by its minster but it is probable that, like Little Bedwyn, Crofton, Wilton, Chisbury, Marten and East Grafton, it had its own chapel of ease.
This survey shows that the parishes of Burbage and Hurstbourne Tarrant were both in the charge of Vitalis the priest and later records show that upon his death both livings passed to this "celibate" priest's son Thurstan.
So it seems that the two manors had a common destiny as far back as 961 and maybe this encouraged the king to appoint a single priest to the two parishes and the practice was then continued by the new Norman order.

Said to be built by Cuthbert Burbage, brother of the famous Shakespearean actor Robert Burbage and son of James Burbage.
Interestingly the famous playhouse was not the Burbage son’s first choice for a playhouse since they already had one in "The Theatre", the first of its kind in London and an inheritance from his father.
Instead Burbage tore it down and then discretely removed several 12 inch oak beams, transporting them to Bankside where they formed the structural frame for a 100 foot circular polygon, the heart of the new playhouse's structure.
