The theatre in Shakespeare’s time was much different than it is today. Authors wrote plays for the masses, especially those who couldn’t read or write. The theatre changed a lot during Shakespeare’s lifetime. The authorities didn’t like it and didn’t allow acting in the city itself. They thought it had a bad influence on people and kept them from going to church. Queen Elizabeth, on the other hand, loved acting and helped the theatre become popular.

Women were treated poorly in the Elizabethan times. They were used for children and passed on like something old. They would be there fathers property until they found a man then the mans property. Usually the man would have sex with the woman to see if she was ble to have children. Then get her pregnant, marry her and use her for the rest of her worthless life.
