Elizabethan Theater• Plays were considered so scandalous and immoral
that theaters were not allowed in the city of London; they all had to be built across the Thames River in Southwark
• Plays were performed in the afternoon, because there was no stage lighting
• It was against the law for women to act in plays, so female roles were played by adolescent boys*
*A North European tradition; this was not the case in Spain, France, or Italy.

Theater Patrons• Most theaters held several thousand
people, most of whom had to stand on the ground in front of the stage. These people were called “groundlings.”
• Wealthier audience members could pay more money to sit on benches or chairs
• Women could attend the theater, but many upper-class women wore masks to conceal their identities

actor and playwright.

working with others on new ones).

investor, and theatre owner.

Tips for Understanding
Romeo and JulietThe story of “Romeo and Juliet” is NOT original; it was
based on a previous work.
“Romeo and Juliet” is based on Arthur Brooke’s long
narrative poem the “Tragicall Historye of Romeus and Juliet”
(1562).
Shakespeare’s version is great because:
Skillful characterization
Intense progression of action; it takes place in 5 days.
Emphasis on timeless themes
Extraordinary use of language
