Shakespeare was an actor, but not the most important one in the company. The audience would be more interested in Richard Burbage (the lead actor) or Will Kempe (the comedian, replaced later with Robert Armin). If they did not like what Burbage and Kempe were doing they would boo the play off the stage, and pelt them with vegetables. If they didn't like Shakespeare, they would probably put up with him since he was playing a relatively small part, probably someone old, since Shakespeare went bald at an early age.

What is a raked stage?

A raked stage is a platform arranged at an angle so the upstage end (or end furthest from the audience) is higher than the down stage end (closer to the audience). If imagining this is difficult, try picturing placing a tennis ball on the floor of a stage. On a raked stage, the ball would roll towards the audience. Raked stages are often effective at: * Bringing the performance closer to an audience giving a more intimate feel * Highlighting the human form * Making a performance visible for all audience members regardless of how far back, or high up, they are sitting.
