When was the stratford theater built?
The first Globe Theatre was built with materials and timber taken from the first 'Theatre' in 1599 when William Shakespeare and the Chamberlain's men were forced to leave because the Puritan owner, Giles Allen, refused to re-new the lease. It only took six months to build. Richard and Cuthbert Burbage, who had owned the Theatre were the majority owners of the Globe. The first Globe burned down in 1613 but a second Globe was rebuilt on the same spot and was ready for use in 1614. It was torn down in 1644 to make way for housing. Shakespeare's Globe, a modern replica of the first Globe, was built in 1997.

What kind of theaters existed in shakespeares day?
Open air public theatres existed in Shakespeares day. They were built of wood, and were circular in shape. They had about three tiers of covered seating, and an open yard in the middle for the 'lower class' to stand and watch the play. They were called groundlings because they stood on the ground, and were only charged a penny to do so. The stage protruded from one side of the circle and into the yard. 'Upper class' theatre visitors could even pay to sit at the side stage to watch the play. There were two main theatres in London during Shakespeare's time, called The Rose and The Globe. Shakespeare predominantly played in The Globe. For more information, I would search 'Shakespeare's Globe'. A reproduction has been built in London which is meant to be based on the designs for the original Globe Theatre. The original burnt down in the Great fire of London in 1666.
When did the Globe Theatre burn down and how did this happen?
In 1613, The First Globe Theatre burned down during a performance of Shakespeare's Henry VIII. Sparks that flew from a cannon used during the production ignited a thatched roof of the gallery, resulting in the fire. The theater was rebuilt with a tile roof and reopened a year later. The Puritans closed all the theaters in London in 1642, including the Globe. Remnants of the building were discovered in 1989 and a replica of the theater was built and opened in 1997. It sports the first thatched roof permitted in London since the Great Fire of London in 1666.
