Shakespeare was an actor. The plays we know he acted in were two that he didn't write, although he must have played in his own as well. These plays were performed in London England, but during times of plague, the actors would play in various country towns throughout England. Shakespeare must have also played in them.

Most famously, in Central Park and on Broadway. The Shakespeare in the Park series at the public theatre in Central Park is an annual tradition. Many of Shakespeare's plays have run on Broadway over the years, including Richard Burton's Hamlet in 1964 and Paul Robeson's Othello in 1943-4.


What month and day did Shakespeare retire?

Well, we don't know exactly. Toward the end of his career it's believed he helped train the playwright Fletcher as his replacement, so many of his later plays are actually partly written by Fletcher. At some point Fletcher started writing them himself with only a little help from Shakespeare and then none. Although Shakespeare moved back to Stratford, he still kept ties with the city and the theatre to his death.

How were Shakespeare's life events represented in his plays?

They were not. We do not know a lot about Shakespeare's life, but what we know does not match events in the plays. Nobody in the plays has to get married at an early age because his girl is pregnant. Shakespeare's plays do not have plots about people leaving country towns to make their fortune in the big city, although stories of this nature abound. Although twins do make an appearance in the Comedy of Errors, they are identical twins, not fraternal. And the brother and sister pair in Twelfth Night are not twins. Shakespeare did not use events in his life as a basis for his plots. And, although people get excited about this, he did not use the names of his family members for his characters. The character Hamlet was not at all based on Shakespeare's son Hamnet. It's just a coincidence that they have similar names. It would be absurd to suggest that Shakespeare named King John after his father, or Ann Bullen after his wife, or Richard III after his brother. It is equally absurd to think that Hamlet is called that for any other reason than that he had always been called that. The nearest one might get to associating the plays with Shakespeare's life is to note that many of the late plays, especially Pericles, Cymbeline and The Winter's Tale, have themes about the reuniting of families long sundered, something that Shakespeare was planning for his own life at the time these plays were written. Of course, the same theme appears in The Comedy of Errors, one of Shakespeare's earliest plays, and Twelfth Night, a play from the middle of his career.
