Not remotely. There is a theory pushed by one John Hudson that Amelia Bassano Lanier was both Jewish and the author of Shakespeare's plays, but her mother was a Gentile which means she wasn't Jewish. That's the first problem with the theory. There are many others, a number of them explained in a response to the latest article about Hudson's theory on the linked website. Interested readers should also look at "Contested Will" and "Shakespeare in Truth," both of which explore the fantasy world of people claiming Shakespeare couldn't have written the plays. All of the conspiracy theorists ignore the fact that nobody ever raised the question until the mid-1850s.

What is the most strangest thing about Shakespeare?

Shakespeare was thought to have been gay. Mostly by gay people. Some of his poems only make sense to them if put in perspective that he was gay or at least bisexual. (In Shakespeare's day men often expressed extravagant affection for other men without being attracted to them sexually, in the same way many people say they love their mothers without wanting to have sex with them.) Shakespeare is thought by some people to have been a nobleman in disguise. Mostly by social snobs Shakespeare is thought by others to be a university graduate in disguise. Mostly by university graduates Shakespeare is thought by yet more people to have been a woman in disguise. Guess who? There is no other author who people want to insist was gay or aristocratic or educated or female against all the evidence to the contrary. Nobody tries to suggest that Emily Dickenson's poetry was really written by a man or that Homer was really a Turk. People are satisfied that all authors are who they are--except Shakespeare.
