    A. Audiences during Shakespeare's time were much more likely to believe that supernatural elements were real.

    Explanation:

    During Shakespeare's time, which was the 16th century, the majority of people were still uneducated and believed in supernatural elements such as ghosts, vampires, etc. This is why at that time, seeing the play Hamlet and his father's ghosts was a much scarier event than it would be nowadays.

    B is incorrect because both drama and comedy are equally relevant in both eras.

    C is incorrect because historical accuracy is either very important or not important at all in both periods.

    D is incorrect because there were rich people then as well who didn't root for lower-class characters.
