Best Answer

In Elizabethan England, the theatre was considered a hangout for unsavory characters such as prostitutes and thieves. Also, actors were considered very low at the time too and would not receive a Christian burial unless they denounced their trade on their death bed.

This belief also goes back to the middle ages, with wandering theatre troupes and the types of people who were in them.
