Answer 1

Shakespeare himself greatly profited by his exposure to touring companies. His decision to join the theatre was with a traveling troupe and his experiences with them, performing for many different kinds of audiences in many different kinds of settings brought him the important understanding of a more universal humanity. They say his plays always reach several levels of society. The groundlings were equally entertained with the more sophisticated. If it weren't for his broad exposure to so many types of people he would not have been able to accomplish this.

Traveling troupes also brought news from one community to another and helped spread cultures and customs throughout their touring locations.

As mentioned earlier, Elizabethan audiences enjoyed a tremendous variety of entertainment. Many of the circus acts we see today would seem familiar to the Elizabethan. There were several types of animal fighting, as well as human fencing, wrestling and boxing.

Shakespeare usually included stage fights, particularly swordplay in his plays and often included dancing.

Traveling players made money by performing for wealthy families, guilds, and taverns to help attract customers and to build good will. They charged admission when they could control the venue and passed the hat when they could not.

Answer 2

1. Travelling entertainers were basically the ONLY entertainment that people in outlying areas ever got except for their own singers and minstrels. It made the country folk feel in-touch with the city. These performers often sang, danced, juggled, did combat, recited stories or jokes and got paid variously depending on their role in the company. The troupe had to be under the sponsorship of some titled royalty which led to names like "The Lord Chamberlain's Men" or "The King's Men."

About all the audiences had besides Shakespeare and the other Elizabethan playwright -- arguably the greatest collection of talent at one time in one place -- was the bull- and bear-baiting. The arena was practically next door to the Globe and was the equivalent of today's WWE except that bears and bulls and dogs really died.

Answer 3

I believe they worked for them selves. They did it to entertain people and bring happiness to the people. They were paid by donations. I am not sure how to ans. your second question. They enjoyed, music, dance .
