Shakespeare enjoyed great popularity during his time writing and acting.
Explanation:
<u>William Shakespeare earned fame during his life, and his plays were performed from the beginning</u>. At first, his historical players were more popular than his currently most popular tragedies, such as Hamlet, which was considered average.
