According to a legend, he left Stratford for London to avoid a charge of poaching. After 1582 Shakespeare probably joined as an actor one or several companies of players. By 1584 he emerged as a rising playwright in London, and became soon a central figure in London´s leading theater company, the Lord Chamberlain´s Company, renamed later as the King´s Men. He wrote many great plays for the group. In 1599 a new theater, called The Globe, was built.

Between the years 1585-1592 we are not sure what was happening in Shakespeare's life. These are referred to as The Lost Years. His marriage was a very unhappy one. It was based on availability and housing as opposed to love. Also, now that the theatres were reopened in London (having been closed on and off due to the plague and the church), he had few prospects at the inn-yard of Stratford. He would have a much larger chance of success in London. There is also some speculation -and it is widely believed- that he was exiled from his home in Stratford due to a poaching incident. It is also quite possible that he was recruited by a group of traveling players. What ever the reason, it is still unknown, William Shakespeare was a working actor/playwright in London by 1592.

royd,sAccording to Peter Acroyd's recent biography he may have been part of the Stratford recusant community (people not going to the weekly Church of England services because they were Catholics) and there was a crack-down in Stratford by the new bishop. So he seems perhaps to have got a placement in a (probably Catholic) noble household in the north of England as a tutor and also acted in the nobleman's visiting players' plays. I do not know if the theory is correct but I am not aware of anything else. Later he did well in London and, though he invested in Stratford and had a family there, work-committments kept him based in the capital for years.

Shakespeare was born in Stratford...also known as Stratford-Upon-Avon. He went to school there...the next we really know of him was when he was married, in Worcester..

Shakespeare's daily activities after he left school and before he re-emerged as a professional actor in the late 1580s are impossible to trace. Suggestions that he might have worked as a schoolmaster or lawyer or glover with his father and brother, Gilbert, are all plausible. So too is the argument that Shakespeare studied intensely to become a master at his literary craft, and honed his acting skills while traveling and visiting playhouses outside of Stratford. But, it is from this period known as the "lost years", that we obtain one vital piece of information about Shakespeare: he married a pregnant orphan named Anne Hathaway.

No one knows for sure, but it was probably connected to his joining a troupe of actors. It is possible that a travelling company of actors visited Stratford, and that Shakespeare joined the company then. There used to be various legends that he was unhappily married, or that he got into trouble with local authorities, but there isn't evidence to support these stories.
