    I have no source to back me up, but I remember from my Shakespeare class... People did not actually go to see his plays. The design of the stage and number of people there they actually went to hear his plays. Probably no help at all.

      It was entertainment just a football, a movie, a concert or what have you. It was all that was available in the day. People have attended plays since man's existence.

        At first many just went as CountVak said, it was all that was available however, once people saw that his plays were actually quite amazing, more and more people came to see it and even the Queen was said to be very interested and admired shakespeare's works.
