Shakespeare knew that it sometimes takes a while for an audience to settle down, so he liked to start his plays either with a bombshell like witches coming up out of the floor (Macbeth) or a storm at sea (Tempest), or alternatively with a light scene which does not involve the main characters as in Romeo and Juliet or Hamlet.
