Best Answer

There were very few other forms of entertainment that appealed to all classes in the way Shakespeare did.

For peasants it would have been blood sports like bull baiting or Wrestling, for upper classes other plays orassembleys, or balls.

Nobles would have attended plays, balls, or have gone hunting, pursued jousting, or have hosted lavish parties to entertain themselves and their friends.
