The Puritans were extremists and thought the theatre was depraved (they thought any fun was depraved).
They opposed the idea of people being on stage and pretending to be someone else, they have compared it to lying. Theatres were also a place where "orange girls", would congregate looking for business and the Puritans wanted to stop them. ( I think these people are desperate for something)
Theatres were also blamed for spreading the plague, they were never opened in summer just in case. But that was thought before the Puritans had put a ban on the fun the people were having.
