In an Elizabethan theatre you could sit our stand. There were no roofs on the theatres back then. There were very props sometimes they didn't have props. They were allowed to speak out to what they thought of the play sometimes they through things at the performers if they didn't like the play.
Tragedy. The full title of the play is "The Tragedy of Romeo and Juliet". Audiences of the Elizabethan times wanted to know what they were going to watch when they went to see a play, so playwrights often put it in the title. Hope this helps :)

Elizabethan audiences enjoyed the plays they watched for pretty much the same reasons as people do today, which is why Elizabethan plays keep getting produced. They were probably quicker to understand what they heard than we are, and were better listeners (modern people expect a story to be shown to them, not told to them). Elizabethans particularly enjoyed wordplay that used puns and alliteration: that is why Shakespeare's Love's Labour's Lost was much more popular then than now. A lot of the wordplay in Much Ado is still accessible to modern audiences.
No, Shakespeare followed the Elizabethan structure of a FIVE act play. Almost all Elizabethan plays are divided into five acts, including Shakespeare's.
