Elizabeth I was a patron of the arts and supported theatrical performances in England during her reign. Shakespeare benefited from this support, as his plays were performed in front of the Queen at court. Additionally, Elizabeth's reign was a time of relative stability and prosperity, which allowed for a flourishing of the arts in general, including theater.
