Why were Shakespeare plays originally written?

If you believed the movie Shakespeare in Love, you might think that Shakespeare was having an affair with a married woman and he was just trying to express how he felt by writing tragedies to symbolise a forbidden love. However, Shakespeare in Love is totally fictional and does not accurately represent the creation of Romeo and Juliet. Besides, how would Shakespeare having an affair be the motive for writing Coriolanus? Or Richard III? No, the prosaic truth is that Shakespeare, like all scriptwriters, was in it for the money. Before he belonged to a company, he could sell his scripts for a little cash; after he joined the Lord Chamberlain's Men, his scripts helped bring in the crowds, which meant a bigger box office and more money for Shakespeare.
