D. Playwrights explored the human condition and provided a voice for the common people.

Answer 1

D

Step-by-step explanation:

Plays were not invented in Elizabethan times, they were just being rapidly modernized. When you look at shakespeare's work, past all of the phallic jokes and sword fights, you see him trying to decipher the essence of love, betrayal, human relationships, as did other playwrights of note at the time.

Plays were not free to the common folk, but they were finally affordable, (which is why Shakespeare probably put the phallic jokes in). Finally, although some were, not all plays were religious.
