Not exactly. A hippodrome was a place where chariot races here held. It was a term for a race track used in the eastern part of the Roman empire. In the west the term "circus" was used.
All depends on who the amphitheatre was built for. Some were built for rich noble men who could afford private entertainment. For the "commoners" there was usually one or two in a large town . These could usually hold the whole town and maybe some on a nearby one, such as in the lost town of Pompeii. In Pompeii the amphitheatre could hold 20,000 which was the population of Pompeii and a few from the nearby town of Nuceria. This is how the riots of Pompeii started when the pompeiians and nucerians began fighting over a gladiatorial fight.
They could play many instruments. They could be blacksmiths. They could be Lords. They could be jailers. They could be knights or squires.

It really depends on the size but a really long time. Building a hippodrome often took about a hundred years due to the fact of less technolody equipment. Again, based on the size of the hippodrome the capacity varied. One of the larges hippodromes built in ancient Greece held 250,000 people. That's alot due to the fact the closest stadium today only hold 150,000 people.
