How did social class affect audience members's experiences at the Globe Theatre?

Social class was a determinant in where the various audience members were seated during plays at the Globe Theater. The Royalty would likely not have taken in shows at the Globe, as they would have been able to command performances in indoor play houses or obtain private showings.
The nobles and aristocrats would have attended plays at the Globe. By paying more, these individuals were allowed into the Gallery to be seated in Nobles's Rooms. These rooms had seating with cushions for comfort and were not overly crowded. Some nobles could even pay to be seated on a wing of the stage itself. These Nobles's Rooms would have been at or above stage level and near the stage, providing an unobstructed view while still being near enough to hear the actors clearly.
Commoners would have been restricted to the ground area or the pit (hence their being called groundlings), which had no seating. Since the audience would be required to stand for the whole play, additional members could gain access, making the pit a crowded area. The plays themselves were also somewhat lengthy, making it necessary to remain standing for hours at a time. In addition, since the pit was below stage level and could extend further back, there was a higher likelihood of an obstructed view and the potential of not being able to clearly hear the actors.
