A few years after Shakespeare's death, in 1623, two of Shakespeare's actor friends, John Hemmings and Henry Condell, who had been friends and colleagues of his, honored his memory by collecting most of his plays (some 36 of them) into a published book. Some editions of about half of these plays had been published during his lifetime, but that book, now known as the First Folio, is primarily responsible for making his plays available to subsequent generations. This Folio was added to and re-printed several times over the centuries, until the present day, so that we now have a canon of something like 38 plays.
They thought it was pretty cool I guess. People bought tickets to see them so I guess they must have liked them.
From 1592 until well after his death, Shakespeare was one of the most successful playwrights in London. Since the Restoration allowed the return of plays to the public stage, his plays have been revived and are still performed today throughout the world.
Regular people went to them, by going to the theatre to watch them. The ticket prices were well within the budget of an apprentice looking for some entertainment. Towards the end of Shakespeare's career, there were a lot more performances in indoor theatres with higher prices which meant that the poorer people could not afford to go. In the nineteenth century, however, people got the idea that Shakespeare should be read, not watched, and inexpensive editions of his plays were within reach of many people. (Note that in the novel A Tree Grows in Brooklyn the poor immigrant family had two books: The Bible and Shakespeare) Theatre became more of an elitist thing until the advent of cinema and television once again enabled a broader audience to enjoy Shakespeare as it was intended to be watched.
The actors got "sides" which was basically their own part and their cues. It helped prevent unauthorized publication of the plays if the actors did not have the whole play to sell to publishers for a few extra shillings.
Well, since he was a partner in the theatrical company he belonged to he was assured that his plays would be produced. And as it happened his theatrical company was the best one in London at the time. Any plays the company put on were bound to be popular, but Shakespeare's were and still are some of the best plays around, so the combination of best plays and best actors was irrestistable.
