in stratford-on-avon. we don't know everything about shakespeare's early life. but
we know that he studied at the grammar school in stratford, and that he became
interested in the theatre when he was still a boy.
in 1586 shakespeare went to london, where he worked in the theatre for some
years before he began to write his own plays.
shakespeare soon became well-known in london literary circles. every play
that he wrote was good news to the people of the capital. queen elizabeth i liked
shakespeare's plays, and the actors were often invited to play before the queen and
later before the king james - a great honor in those days. by the end of the
16th century shakespeare and his friends built their own theatre - the famous globe
theatre.

plays were worse than his, often quarreled with shakespeare and attacked him,
