 Studying Shakespeare, here are five facts to do with Shakespeare. Number one, Shakespeare was born in 1564 and he died in 1616 in Stratford upon Avon. Number two, he only had a grammar school education, he never went to university. Number three, he married Anne Hathaway in 1590 and they had three children. Number four, he then moved to London to be an actor and playwright. Number five, he became incredibly successful and he partly owned the Globe Theatre. Afterwards, King James invited his acting company to be the King's Men in 1603, which is a big honour.
