Many theatres back then had hard seating and great acoustics which helps because softness absorbs sound so you have to speak louder. And back then most actors were very loud.

In 1950s if people were not seeing films what did they do in their leisure time?

It's incorrect to say people in the 50s were not watching movies because they were. Movie theaters still did good business in that decade. However, there was a dip in attendance due to the proliferation of televisions amongst most American households. To combat this, theaters added widescreen formats, stereo sound, and made movies events. This brought people back to theaters in droves and erased the deficit that TV had created.
