Why do you think Elizabethan plays were performed during the afternoon in an open courtland?

There are at least some contemporary images of the exterior of theatres and one image of the inside of the Swan theatre. There are also archaeological findings (the foundations of the Rose and Globe theatres) as well as contracts for the construction of the Fortune playhouse in 1600. From all of these sources, we can deduce that the large public playhouses in the Elizabethan era were open to the elements and that their lighting was natural sunlight. Obviously, then, the plays were performed during the day. In fact Thomas Platter, a Swiss tourist visiting London in 1599 said in his diary that the plays commenced at 2 p.m.

What time of day were plays usually performed in Elizabethan theaters?

Plays were performed at three o'clock in the afternoon when they were performed in a circular open air theater. There was not sufficient lighting to hold plays for large audiences indoors at night during the late 16th and early 17th centuries. They could and did perform for smaller audiences at night indoors at court, at people's homes, at public halls, and at indoor theatres like the Blackfriars. Because the audiences had to be smaller, indoor theatres' ticket prices were much higher than those at the large public outdoor theatres. Shakespeare attests to this procedure in A Midsummer Night's Dream, where Pyramus and Thisbe is performed on an indoor stage in "the three hours between after-supper and bed-time".


What Elizabethan attractions where there in Shakespeare's time?

For the first thirty-nine years of Shakespeare's life, all of the attractions he might find in England were "Elizabethan". Working as he did in the red light district of Southwark, I daresay he found some attractions during the Elizabethan Era.


Could people read in Elizabethan times?

How the hell do you think they memorized scripts or how romeo and juliet was written down? At least some people (and all of the actors) had to know how to read. And these were ordinary middle-class people like Shakespeare himself.
