they are the groundlings from the 1500s. they would watch the play from the floor, and they would have to pay a penny to watch it. they are called the stinkard because they used to stink in the summer. and people in the 1500s would take a shower 2 a year or something. and the poor people didnt have money, so most of them didnt take showers. i hope this answers your question.
Groundlings, the lower-class audience members who stood in the pit of Elizabethan theaters, were often referred to as "penny stinkards" because they paid just a penny for admission and were sometimes considered less refined than wealthier patrons. The term "stinkard" reflects the notion that they brought with them less desirable odors, likely due to the lack of hygiene during that era. Despite this, groundlings were known for their enthusiastic reactions and played a crucial role in the lively atmosphere of performances.
The lower classes of observers stood in the theatre pit. They paid 1 penny as an entrance fee, and because they stood in the lowest area, were called groundlings. A less favorable name that they were called was Stinkards.
When I visited the reconstruction of the Globe theatre in London, I was told that they are referred to as Groundlings. I have also heard that the actors sometimes referred to them as 'Penny Stinkards', but I can't give a good source to confirm this.
