We have no documentary evidence of this but we can imagine that he would try to see any plays that were going. Theatre was intensely competitive and playwrights did try to keep up with what the others were doing.
Elizabeth I
Well... That is an opinion... opinions do not always have a reason.
Queen Elizabeth was not a patron of Shakespeare's acting company, nor did she show an unusual interest in his plays. She did have his plays performed before her, along with those of other playwrights. Having your plays performed at court did boost one's reputation as a playwright.
Richard Burbage was a noted Elizbaethan actor who was the lead in many of Shakespeare's plays, including that of Hamlet.
No, David Tennant plays the Doctor in that episode. Matt Smith isn't in it.
Everyone, except Puritans, whose religion told them that enjoying yourself was bad.
yes
Try Youtube.
I recommend that you attend a performance of a Shakespeare play and find out.
watch plays and see where Shakespeare worked

Watch Shakespearean plays (during Shakespeare's lifetime.)
James I, whose reign started in 1601.
Other people's plays. He rarely watched his own plays because he was usually acting in them.
All of Shakespeare's plays were written exclusively to entertain his audiences, although the history plays did inform them (and also misinform them) incidentally. Shakespeare did not have a moral or intellectual agenda in his plays, which is why they are so good.
All sorts of people all over the world.
The Globe theatre was the theatre that Shakespeare's plays were mostly performed in. It can seat up to 1500 people and up to 3000 if people stand outside. Shakespeare's plays were usually packed so therefore around 1500 or more people watched Shakespeare's plays!!!
