The theaters were sometimes violent and were sometimes in poor neighboorhoods and they had animal bating, prostitution, etc. Shakespear had many misstreses and affairs. He retired very wealthy. All of the actors in the plays were men. His plays could be divided in 3 catorgories histories tradgities and comedies. They were many times based in real things. Histories are only written about the british monarchy. Comedies are the only plays that have happy endings. Tradgeities are the most well known romeo and juliet, hamlet, king lear, julius caesar.
Marlo was murdered
Applying:  What he was recongized for:

William Shakespear who was born in england and moved to London at the age of 27, also began writing plays and sonnets. With a total of 37 plays and 154 sonnets he created and is most remebered for his plays like midsummer night's dream, romeo and juliet, and also hamlet; those are some of his most famous pieces. William Shakespear is quite a mystery, dropped out of school at the age of 13 and with a kid at the age of 18 many question if his creation were really his. There are many suspicions leading up to this such as that he had very little schooling and his pieces show extensive knowledge, also that he references over 200 books and it is believed that he never even owned one. Many have the theory that William Shakespear murdered Marlo, a writer who was to shy to show his work, and presented it to the world as his own.

Evaluating: What I think of William Shakespear (Him and his writing)
I think that William Shakespear was a great writer, and may have been one of the most avant gaurd writers of our time, I say this because I think that his works were something very different from anything that people heard or saw at that time in history. He brought new genres new, things and sides that people had not explored before and I think that fascinated people. I do however question if his plays and sonnets are his. There has been a lot of doubt in my mind since I learned more about him. Things that don't add up for me are the facts that he dropped out of school at the age of 13, wrote hundreds od pieces by 27 that referenced over 200 books, to which he was owner of none, and many places to which he had never been.
