Stories. Shakespeare (and most everyone else) studied Ovid in school so they could readily allude to his stories.
What else can I help you with?
Who did Shakespeare use as inspiration for his actors and plays?
His plays were based on stories he had read or plays he had seen. Shakespeare rarely created an original plot--he just made pre-existing plots so much better.
Which William Shakespeare plays were performed in London?
All of them. London was the centre of the English theatrical scene and the location of all the major playhouses. The theatrical company to which Shakespeare belonged and for whom he wrote all his plays was permanently established at a London theatre (it was a different theatre at different times) and that is where the plays would have seen their premiere.
What Shakespeare's plays have performed at swan theater?
Depends which Swan Theatre you're talking about. There was a Swan theatre in Shakespeare's day, but it's likely that it never saw a Shakespeare play, because it was operated by the competition. On the other hand the Swan theatre at Stratford has seen lots of Shakespeare plays, probably all of them.

Authors that he read about as a child, books he read as an adult, plays he had seen performed etc.

Where was a great place for Shakespeare's plays?
Anyplace is a great place for a Shakespeare play. I've seen them in tents, in parks, on outdoor stages, indoor stages and in the rain. They're all great.
What was the name of the most famous theatere?
The Globe Theatre is the theatre most often associated with Shakespeare. However, it was not his theatre in the sense that your car is your car. He did not own it although he did have a financial interest in it. It was not the only theatre he had a financial interest in. It is far from the only theatre he acted in; he acted in many others. It was not the only place Shakespeare's plays were seen (although they were performed there) and they played lots of plays by people other than Shakespeare there. Finally, none of his contemporaries would ever have thought of the Globe as "Shakespeare's theatre"; almost certainly it would be "the Burbages' theatre."
What famous person came to watch Shakespeare's plays?
I bet you've seen Shakespeare in Love and you think, "Aha! It's Queen Elizabeth I." But she didn't "come to watch" Shakespeare's plays. She told the Lord Chamberlain's Men to come to her. The same goes for James I and members of his family and all of the richest and most powerful people at the time. None of these people would ever go to a playhouse. Of course there are probably many famous people who watched Shakespeare's plays at the theatre during his lifetime: writers, playwrights, poets, musicians, and anyone else who wasn't of the upper crust. And after the Restoration, everyone went to the theatres and just about anyone who was famous for anything had at one time or another seen a Shakespeare play.
How William Shakespeare began to plot novells?
He did not. William Shakespeare did not write novels. They were an unknown form in his day. Shakespeare wrote plays which is a totally different literary form. The plots for his plays were almost all taken from stories or history books or biographies he had read or plays by other people which he had seen. He made changes in these plots but he started out with a story he got from somewhere else.
Who went to plays during Shakespeare time?
About everyone except the very poor. People went to be seen especially the upper class.
