William Shakespeare - you've seen the play, now get the T-Shirt - it bears the slogan WILL POWER.
Try this link : -
Shakespeare's Life and TimesThe Life and Times of Mr. William Shakespeare. A very nicely done site, with links to the MIT versions of the plays and an interactive quiz. ...

There are millions of links on the web dealing with Wm.S.
Here's a completely useless piece of information, which you can throw into the conversation when you get around to it.
Every single day, 1000 [one thousand] productions of William Shakespeare's plays go on stage around the Globe.
Now try this site : -
Shakespeare's Globe Theatre, Bankside, Southwark, LondonThe reconstructed Shakespeare's Globe on London's Bankside, including Theatre, Education and Exhibition departments.
http://www.shakespeares-globe.org
Once at the above site, just click through until you find the information section.
Edit: for all those lovers of the Elizabethan period - think on. The Black Death, pox, the scab, jaundice, mouth sores, itchy head lice, fleas, and an early death around 25 to 30 on average.
Today, drink and be merry, for tomorrow we may die!

Google up William Shakespear to get information about his birth and death - and also information on his writing/acting career plus lots more interesting info on The Bard. There is still controversy over the authorship of Shakespear's works and it's interesting that the more technology that is brought to play on the original manuscripts, the less definite the information becomes.
