| | Lord Chamberlain's Men - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Henry Carey, Lord Hunsdon sponsored a troupe of players as early as the mid-1560s; Lord Hunsdon's Men were touring the provinces in 1564-7, with stops in Norwich, Malden, Plymouth, Canterbury, Bristol, and elsewhere. |
 | | The initial form of the Chamberlain's men arose largely from the departure of Edward Alleyn from Lord Strange's Men and the subsequent death of Lord Strange himself, in the spring of 1594. |
 | | The Chamberlain's Men comprised a core of between six and eight "sharers," who split profits and debts; perhaps an equal number of hired men who acted minor and doubled parts; and a slightly smaller number of boy players, who were sometimes bound apprentices to an adult actor. |
