Because they were and are extremely entertaining: funny, sad, horrifying, beautiful, magical, silly, satirical. Shakespeare put more power in the language that he had his characters speak than anyone before or since.

∙ 13y agoPeople admire Shakespeare's work for a number of reasons. Shakespeare's plays are what actors dream about playing: interesting and conflicted characters in exciting plots with plenty of action and with great lines. What more could you ask? The plays give a lot to the audience too: for the most part they move crisply yet provide deep characters.
Many people admire Shakespeare's poetry, both in the plays and the poems, especially the sonnets. Shakespeare is not afraid to address real issues that affected people then and affect them now in a thought-provoking way.
In general, Shakespeare was not afraid to push at the conventions and to try something really new with a story: have comedies that end with nobody getting married, have comedies that contain a tragic subplot, have revenge dramas which question the value of revenge, have the villain of the piece as the protagonist, have half the play take place twenty years after the other half.
