Why were theatres built outside the city walls?
In Elizabethan times there were actually city ordinances prohibiting the building of theatres within the city (there were no city walls around sixteenth-century London). Think of it as a zoning ordinance. The city fathers thought that theatres created traffic problems and contributed to the spread of crime and disease (although they did not worry about churches, strangely enough). Therefore the theatres were built in the suburbs.
