	Richard Burbage
		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 1599 they pulled down the Shoreditch house and used the materials to erect the Globe theatre, famous for its connection with Shakespeare.
		In this venture Richard Burbage had Shakespeare and others as his partners, and it was in one or the other of these houses that he gained his greatest triumphs, taking the lead part in almost every new play.

		The housekeepers’ shares in the Globe were sixteen in number, and, at the date of the dispute, they were held as follows: three and a half by Cuthbert Burbage, son of James and brother of Richard, three and a half by the widow of Richard Burbage, now Mrs.
		The Blackfriars was divided into eight shares, three being in the hands of Cuthbert Burbage and the widows of Richard Burbage and Condell, the remaining five in the hands of Shankes, who held two, and Taylor, Lowin and Underwood (another actor), who had one each.
		Considerable though their profits seem to have been, certain shareholders felt that too much money went into the hands of the housekeepers and that the existing distribution among the actor-housekeepers was unfair, and their petition to the lord chamberlain for a compulsory sale to themselves of certain shares was, apparently, granted.

	William Shakespeare \| Shakespeare's Globe Theater
		The Globe was built during Shakespeare's early period in 1599 by one of his long-standing associates, Cuthbert Burbage, the brother of the most famous Shakespearean actor of the Elizabethan Age, Richard Burbage.
		But there was a problem with this valuable legacy: Cuthbert Burbage owned the Theatre, its structure and materials, but the land on which the Theatre was erected was leased by his father and his eldest son was unable to negotiate a renewal of the land lease.
		The extent to which Shakespeare wrote his great tragic hero roles with Burbage in mind cannot be determined, but the indirect evidence strongly suggests that the playwright knew in advance that Burbage would be the "star" and had him in mind when he created the characters of Hamlet, Lear, Othello and the like.

	Shakespeare's Globe Theatre at AbsoluteShakespeare.com
		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.

		In the Burbages' case, substantially all the theatre existed, but it had to be dismantled with individual timbers marked, not wrecked, then transported and re-assembled.
		The gist of the Burbage family's defence (Cuthbert and Winifred, Richard's widow) is that they suffered manifold law suits, the leases' expiration, loss of business in sickness times (the plagues) and other accidents that " cut from them the best part of the gains said to have been received"....
		Cuthbert Burbage was apparently not an actor, but was a sharer in the Globe with his brother Richard, the famous actor.

	Richard Burbage - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		His acting career included a stint in the Earl of Leicester's company, and he was acting with the Admiral's Men in 1590; but most famously he was the star of William Shakespeare's theatre company, the Lord Chamberlain's Men which mutated into the King's Men on the ascension of James I in 1603.

	Shakespeare's Lost Years in London 1586-1592
		After 1576 Burbage's relations with companies of actors were necessarily much the same as those of Henslowe's with the companies that acted at his theatres, though it is probable that Burbage acted at times for a few years after this date.
		The fact that James Burbage, the leader of Leicester's company in its palmy days--1574 to 1582--was, between 1582 and 1589, the leader of Lord Hunsdon's company, when coupled with the fact that they appeared before the Court during this interval, gives added evidence that it was a recognised London company at this period.
		Burbage's reason for securing Lord Hunsdon's patronage in 1582 was, no doubt, because of Leicester's departure for the Continent in this year and the disorganisation of Leicester's company, caused by the formation of the new Queen's company at the same period.

		Cuthbert Burbage, in 1635 or 1636, did not remind the Earl of what the Earl knew very well, that the Folio had been dedicated, in 1623, to him and his brother, by Will’s friends, Heminge and Condell, as they had been patrons of the late William Shakspere and admirers of his plays.
