They would throw anything they got their hands on. They would curse, scream, fight, etc.
The people who went to the plays didn't pay much attention. It was an interesting mixture of people. There were 3 levels on the theater. On the bottom floor were standing men who were very noisy and talking, shoving, and yelling. A lady sold Oranges to this crowd. On the second level was usually couples sitting. These were usually men out with their mistress/or wife. Some did pay attention to the plays. The third level was really busy with "working women" plying their "trade" to the men on the bottom floor. They were very busy and very loud. The plays used ghosts and other elements to keep the audience watching.
They were noisy. If they liked the play, they would listen and cheer at the end. If they didn't like it they would heckle the actors and throw things at them.
People would throw apple cores at the actors if they got bored
They would do the same things they did in all the other theatres in London: make catcalls at the actors and throw things at them.
With catcalls, and sometimes by throwing things at the actors.
chuck vetgtables at them
For entertainment. Movies weren't around in those days soinstead of going to the cinemas like we do, they went to the theatre :)
They were all midgets or mental people.
It was like the Globe Theatre in London now except that there were fewer exits, no sprinkler system or fire retardants in the roof or walls, they packed in crowds about twice as big and there were no bathrooms. You heard me--no bathrooms.
The new Shakespeare's Globe Theatre in London, which is about twenty years old, was designed to look as much as possible like the Globe Theatre built in 1599. If you look for images of that theatre you will see what it looked like.

Shakespeare's plays took place there.

The poor had to stand up and they didn't have a very good view while watching the plays.
it was amazing and such a great experience, at first confusing as his plays were.

The atmosphere inside the Globe Theatre was very like the atmosphere outside the theatre on account of it had no roof. The main difference that the 3000 people inside it made were that it was somewhat hotter and much smellier (these people often had not bathed for months)
