The outdoor theatre had flies, that is facilities to draw things up into the ceiling by ropes. The heavy roof over the stage could be entered from the tiring house and an actor lowered through a trap door. It was a risky business since the roof was two stories up (probably some 6 or 7 metres) and modern safety equipment had not been invented. Shakespeare did not use the flies as often as the stage trap door, but he does use them in Cymbeline to show the god Jupiter descending.

What were some of the shakespearian actors called?
Your question is vague. Do you mean by "shakespearian actors" actors who have acted on stage in Shakespeare's plays, or do you mean actors who acted on the same stage as William Shakespeare, or do you mean actors who were alive when Shakespeare was? And are you asking for their names (Richard Burbage, David Garrick, Edmund Kean, Sir Henry Irving, Kenneth Branagh are actors who played Shakespeare; Richard Burbage, Will Kempe, Augustine Phillips and Nathan Field were actors who acted with Shakespeare; Richard Burbage, Edward Alleyn and Richard Tarleton were actors when Shakespeare was alive)? Or perhaps you want to know what people called them ("no-good lazy bums" no doubt).
