Best Answer

Theatre in Shakespeare's time was not a quiet experience. It was more like going to a screening of The Rocky Horror Picture Show: people yelled at the actors and threw things at the stage. The performance of Pyramus and Thisbe in A Midsummer Night's Dream gives you some idea of how vocal audiences could be. So does The Death of Gonzago in Hamlet; in the middle Hamlet yells at the actors "Is this a prologue or the posy of a ring?"
