Resumen
Stage space played an essential role in the success of Elizabethan and Jacobean theatre. Aspects such as the structure of the playhouses, the dynamism of merging onstage and offstage spaces, lighting, and music are combined to actively involve an audience of all social classes into the show. Similarly, the influence of Shakespeare and the way he uses stage space become essential to carry out play-within-the play strategies, controversial themes, and masquerades, making theatre evolve, spread, and popularise. This essay reflects on how the employment of stage space during the Elizabethan and Jacobean period represents a turning point in theatre at that time and is a baseline to understand nowadays’ theatre.
