There is a report of someone attending a performance in 1610, and it would appear that the play was reasonably well received. And this was some years after it was first written, so it must have had some staying power. However, it is clear that shortly thereafter the play was rewritten and all the scenes with Hecate added in as part of an effort to make the play more popular, so it mustn't have been the most popular play around. And of course the audiences were not "Elizabethan" at all, as Macbeth was written after Queen Elizabeth's death.
