William Shakespeare

I come from the magazine “ Old times” and I am going to talk about William Shakespeare:
William was born in April 1564 in Startford-upon-Avon. His parents were Mary and John. When he was 18 years old he married Anne Hathaway, she was 26 years old. They got three children. Two daughters named Susanna and Judith. And one son with the name Hamnet. Williams was cheating on his wife with men and women.
He was an actor. He funded an acting company in 1594, the Lord Chamberlain’s men.
He wrote 154 sonnets and 38 plays. He wrote the most famous romantic play named “Romeo and Juliet” year 1595. It’s about two young lovebirds, but their parents will never let them meet and they will never  get married. So Romeo and Juliet had a secret relationship. At the end Romeo and Juliet took their lives.
The Globe theatre burnt down year 1613.
William was 52 years old before he die. He died year 1616 23 April. He died of a lung disease. When he died, he gave the second best bed to his wife.
