Describe the sets and costumes and actors and audience in Shakespeare's plays?
Shakespeare's plays have been played hundreds of thousands of times in the four hundred years since they were written, and with each production there are different actors, costumes and sets. Each performance has a different audience. The audience might be a dozen people sitting on the ground, some people standing in a market, people sitting in the plush seats of a western American opera house.
The actors can be anything from schoolchildren to the most celebrated actors of the age, and everything in between. Almost all actors want to play Shakespeare.
The set can be an elaborate reconstruction of ancient Egypt, as in Victorian sets of Antony and Cleopatra, or a bare stage, or anything in between. I have seen King Lear played on a hill outside in a park.
Costumes are whatever the actors are going to wear. Claudius in a cardigan sweater? It's been done. Malcolm in a white turtleneck and blue blazer? Done. Kate Minola as a cowgirl? Done. Doll Tearsheet as a punk rocker? Ditto. Macbeth dressed as Genghis Khan with a crown like the Statue of Liberty? That was Orson Welles.
