The black verse that Shakespeare employed is the most similar to English speech, and Shakespeare also wrote many passages in common prose, especially with common or comic characters. The Elizabethans did use the words, phrases, and sentence structures that Shakespeare presents, and even though Elizabethans went in for puns and wordplay, Shakespeare's dialogue does enhance and embellish this tendency.

Did people speak in the way they did in shakespeares plays?

Just actors. Most of Shakespeare's plays are in verse--they have a rigid rhythm to them. Some of the lines even rhyme. None of this is the way people really talked. Sometimes Shakespeare's characters speak in prose, without a set rhythm, which is closer to natural speech. Yet even so, when Shakespeare's lines are compared with those of some of his contemporaries, who tried harder to imitate the way people really talked, the difference is clear. Shakespeare's characters are much easier to understand for us because he does not use slang idioms.

A play. Shakespeare's plays are intended to be performed on stage, and that makes them plays.

These are sometimes called poetic dialogues, or, if they really strongly resemble play form, closet dramas.
