No. Queen Elizabeth did not write plays or any other fiction during her entire life. She was an extremely well-educated woman, and if she was going to write something she would be more likely to write a translation of something from Latin to Italian or some other language. And of course she wrote personal letters and speeches for herself.

The idea of the monarch collaborating with a player would be unthinkable. Royalty did not hang out with people of Shakespeare's class.

Why did Shakespeare write his plays for Queen Elizabeth The First?

If Shakespeare wrote his plays for Queen Elizabeth it would be because Queen Elizabeth was held in high regard, so Shakespeare would have written the plays in her honor and name. However, Shakespeare did not write his plays for Queen Elizabeth. None of them are dedicated to her, and he wrote most of them after her death.


Why is Queen Elizabeth a rolemodel to Shakespeare?

Queen Elizabeth was not a role model to Shakespeare. Shakespeare had no desire to base his life on hers. He did not want to wear wigs, paint his face white, wear dresses with incredibly wide hips or do anything that Elizabeth did. She was the queen, of course, and there were laws about what you could write or perform that might offend her Majesty. But there is no reason to suppose that Shakespeare wrote anything with the queen specifically in mind. She (unlike her successor King James) was not his patron and he did not dedicate any works to her.

How did Shakespeare aim to please elizabeth?

The only people Shakespeare aimed to please were the people who paid his company money to see his plays performed. This meant thousands of people every day. Some of them may have been called Elizabeth. Shakespeare did not write anything for Queen Elizabeth I. His company did perform at court once or twice, but they performed plays which were already tried and tested on the public stage. Court performances were not the bread-and-butter of the company; the performances on the public stage were. Nor was Queen Elizabeth even the patron of Shakespeare's company (you can tell from their name that The Lord Chamberlain was). She was patron of the Queen's Men, for whom Shakespeare never wrote a word. In short, Shakespeare's relationship with Queen Elizabeth was negligible and quite irrelevant to his career and to hers. You might think about it this way: the Beatles performed Please Please Me for HM Queen Elizabeth II but it would be ridiculous to infer from that that they wrote the song for her benefit.


What kings and queens did Shakespeare write for?

None. Shakespeare was not hired by royalty to write. He was hired by his playing company to write. Even when the king was the patron of the company, he did not involve himself in the running of it. As an actor Shakespeare performed many times before Queen Elizabeth and King James, often in his own plays, but he did not write the plays for these occasions. He wrote them for the public theatres.

Were Queen Elizabeth I and William Shakespeare the same person?

It is very unlikely that the Queen of England had the time to write so many plays and poems. William also acted in person at the Globe when women were not allowed on the stage.


How did Elizabeth I encourage Shakespeare?

Elizabeth I was a patron of the arts and supported theatrical performances in England during her reign. Shakespeare benefited from this support, as his plays were performed in front of the Queen at court. Additionally, Elizabeth's reign was a time of relative stability and prosperity, which allowed for a flourishing of the arts in general, including theater.


What two kings did William shakespeare write for?

Shakespeare did not write for any kings. He wrote for his theatre company, which after 1603 was sponsored by King James I, but this sponsorship was just like the sponsorship of a sports team--the sponsor had nothing to do with the day-to-day management of the company. And not only did he have no relationship with Queen Elizabeth, apart from occasionally performing in front of her, but she was obviously a queen and not a king
