The Elizabethan Audience were thrilled over the performance of 'The Tempest by William Shakespeare'. It was one of their favourite plays from William Shakespeare as they believed in magic, ghosts, spirits and all magical fantasies, which 'The Tempest' has got included into it. 'The Tempest' is a very satire play which has a effect on the Elizabethan Audience as it amuses them but with a deatailed purpose. The play can be funny at times but in some particular places in the play serious with detail and still with amusement.

∙ 7y agoThe Tempest is not an Elizabethan play and was not watched by Elizabethan audiences, since it was written some eight years after the end of the Elizabethan era. The play is known to have been performed privately for the royal family on more than one occasion, but there is no record of it being performed in the public theatre. Scholars believe that the stage directions indicate that, if it was performed publicly, it was performed in the more exclusive indoor theatre The Blackfriars rather than the more lowbrow and cheaper Globe. Therefore there is reason to think that it was not a popular play at all with the general public, although it was popular with royalty and the upper crust.

What is the moral of the tempest?
The Tempest was not written to communicate a moral; it was not written for a Sunday School Class. It was written to entertain. The audience may derive a better understanding of something by means of the action of the play, but that depends entirely on what the audience wants to take away from it. In any case, of all of Shakespeare's plays, The Tempest is one of the least didactic and most ambiguous. What kind of silly moral would you propose: that if you keep a girl from seeing other people, she'll fall for the first man she sees?
