Shakespeare’s plays we’re violent in those days, although modern audience were often discussed by its gore and brutality. Shakespeare also felt that he could express his feelings In his plays, which was a better way because he can see the actors shouting, crying, laughing and moody just like he would have felt.
William Shakespeare was born in April 1564 in the town of Stratford-upon-Avon, on England’s Avon River. When he was eighteen, he married Anne Hathaway. The couple had three children—their older daughter Susanna and the twins Judith and Hamnet. Hamnet, Shakespeare’s only son, died in childhood.
