	Henry IV Part I was probably written in 1597 -- unless you mean Henry VI Part I, the date of which is uncertain, but which seems to have been written by 1592 based on Philip Henslowe's accounts. You might also wish to clarify what you mean by "Renaissance begins" and "Renaissance ends" -- any number of events could fall under that description.

	Just a couple of points: 1) The Theatre was simply called The Theatre. It was never "The King's Men's Theatre" as it only existed during Elizabeth's reign. By the time James came to the throne in 1603 and the Lord Chamberlain's Men were rechristened The King's Men, the Theatre had long since been dismantled and rebuilt as the Globe. 2) The Red Lion has nothing to do with Shakespeare: it was built c. 1567 (not 1577) and probably survived no longer than a year, so would have been long gone by the time Shakespeare came anywhere near London.
