How would shakespeare say Ladies and gentlemen?

Since the words "Ladies" and "Gentlemen" were both in his vocabulary, he could have said "ladies and gentlemen". However, these terms in his day were very specific markers of social class. He himself worked very hard to be entitled to call himself "William Shakespeare, gentleman". The only way he was allowed to call himself that was because his father had been granted a coat of arms. You will note that when Viola in Twelfth Night describes her parentage to Olivia she says, "I am a gentleman." That would specifically describe Cesario's social class, a class below Olivia's. Women were often called "ladies" when they were of various social classes. Thus Shakespeare conjoins lords and gentlemen, lords and ladies, and ladies and gentlemen. E.g. "Welcome, gentlemen! ladies that have their toes Unplagued with corns will have a bout with you." (Romeo and Juliet, 1,5)


Were Shakespeare's actors young?

The actors did not belong to Shakespeare, who was not even the leader of his theatrical company, so they were not really "Shakespeare's actors." You might call them Burbage's actors, maybe. Anyway, yes, some of the actors in the company were quite young. The company hired young boys as apprentices to learn the trade, and before their voices broke, they played the parts of young women who had high voices.
