Dear Mr. Viet Anh!
William Shakespeare

The great English playwright and poet William Shakespeare was born on April 23, 1564 in the small town of Stratford-upon-Avon, about seventy-five miles from London. He was the son of a tradesman. When a bon he went to Stratford Grammar School, where Latin and Greek were almost the only subjects. Life itslf, contact with people and his acquaintace with the rich English folklore gave him more than the scholastio methods used at school. In those days Stratford-upon-Avon was often visited by travelling groups of actors. It is quite possible that Shakespeare saw some plays performed by such actors and was impressed by them.
Shakespeare lived in Stratford-upon-Avon untill he was twenty-one. By that time he was married and had three children. At twenty-one he left Stratford-upon-Avon for London where he joined a theatrical company and worked as an actor and a playwright.
