Scholars argue over Shakespeare's first theater company. Queen Elizabeth's Men, Lord Strange's Men, and the Earl of Derby's Men are all possibilities. In 1594, Shakespeare, Burbage, and others founded Lord Hunsdon's Men, which became the Lord Chamberlain's Men soon after.

LaoA great number of theatre companies over the years have specialized in productions of Shakespeare. In Shakespeare's day, his own company, the King's Men, held the exclusive performing right for his plays up until the time of their disbandment. After 1660, two theatre companies, operating out of Drury Lane and Covent Garden had exclusive rights over the plays. Eventually this restriction was lifted, and all kinds of professional, amateur and student companies had a go at the Bard's works. Modern-day companies which specialize in Shakespeare include the Royal Shakespeare Company, the Royal National Theatre company, the company of Shakespeare's Globe Theatre, and the companies of innumerable Shakespeare Festivals, such as the one in Stratford, Ontario, Canada.
