Well, shakesperian dramas always had soliloquies in it. those are long monologues for when the actor is speaking out his thoughts. Also, Shakespeare's prominent characters normally spoke in sonnets. (a set poetic form) Another thing is that most shakesperian dramas end with every main character dying.

Here are some random facts:

1) Shakespeare actually had a set bunch of actors called players who he would write the script of his plays for. As an example, when he wrote Romeo and Juliet, he was thinking of some people in his troupe who would fit the part.
2) Shakespeare's work actually has at least one vulgar joke on every page.

Shakespears plays come in many forms histories, tragedies, comedies and tragicomedies. He founded many of his plays on historical fact,and war played a large role in his dramas.
I hope those little tidbits help you at all.
You probably already know this but you should really do your schoolwork yourself. If you don't understand what your teacher is talking about then ask them to explain. Don't rely on other people to do it for you. Furthermore none of us on here know exactly what your assignment was.Asking for three facts about Shakespearean drama could mean numerous things. Is it three facts about a specific play or about all of them facts about the reason he wrote the play.Things like that you cant just ask for facts.
