People objected to the Globe Theatre's construction in the neighbourhood primarily due to concerns about noise and disorder. The theatre was seen as a source of rowdy crowds, potential crime, and moral decline, as many believed it would attract unsavory characters and disrupt the community's peace. Additionally, there were fears that the presence of such an establishment would lower property values and negatively impact the local environment. These objections reflected broader societal attitudes toward entertainment and public spaces during that era.
The theatre during Shakespeare's time was considered to be highly unmoral. It was believed that attending a performance at a theatre would keep people from attending church. Theatres were not quiets places like they are today. Many members of the audience would jeer the performers and crime was often an issue.
The Globe, along with other theatres such as The Rose, The Swan, and The Hope, was located in Southwark, a borough south of the River Thames famous for brothels and general lawlessness. A theatre might bring 3000 people together--a ripe prospect for pickpockets and cutpurses. It was also a place where prostitutes could solicit for business. Clergymen opposed this on moral grounds (although some of them owned the brothels in Southwark) and politicians on the grounds that theatres increase crime and (it was thought) disease. The Puritan clergy opposed theatres on the general ground that enjoying oneself was contrary to God's law (a point of view still heard today), and when those clergymen got control of the government all of the theatres in the country including the Globe were closed. It was as a result of this that the Globe was torn down in 1642.
1. Straight-laced religious people who didn't like people to have fun. 2. City fathers who thought theatres caused congestion, and helped spread crime and disease.
The expression "Shakespeare's theatre" is very vague and unclear. Do you mean one of the several buildings he worked in as an actor, or one of the smaller number of buildings he was part owner of, or his particular style of writing plays, or the theatrical company he belonged to for most of his life, or the whole Elizabethan-Jacobean entertainment industry? I suspect the latter. Calling the entire Elizabethan-Jacobean entertainment industry "Shakespeare's Theatre" is entirely misleading in the same way that it would be misleading to describe the entire American movie industry in the last four decades of the twentieth century as "Stanley Kubrick's cinema".Did people in Shakespeare's day oppose the theatre? Yes, for two reasons. City fathers opposed the theatre because it drew large crowds together, which increased crime and the spread of communicable diseases. Religious extremists opposed the theatre because they disapproved of people having a good time when God clearly wanted them to be miserable.
