The masses didn't see Shakespeare at all. The masses worked from dawn until dusk and fought and fornicated for fun- as well as enjoying cock fighting, bear baiting, and public executions. The masses couldn't read in England- and poor folk who could read were viewed as quite subversive. A bit different dynamic in America- but it was thought very dangerous to educate women even in this country. To compare education now to times past is impossible (imo) since whole classes of society were deemed uneducable and were left in perfect ignorance.
