In the opening of Julius Caesar there's the bit where Mark Anthony offers him a crown 3 times and he refuses. Then he gets an epileptic episode. But this is played off-screen. Why not have him do it in front of the audience to humanize the character, to give some contrast to his later extreme arrogance?
There's a similar scene in Richard III that's actually played out, with a crowd and everything, so I doubt it was an issue of stage logistics.
