In 1599 Shakespeare’s company built the Globe Theatre on the River Thames in London. You can visit the theatre today, but it isn’t the same building. There was a fire in the old theatre. They built it again in 1614 and in the 1990s.

Shakespeare was born in 1564 in Stratford, England. Like many people 400 years ago. Shakespeare’s parents didn’t learn to read or write. At school he liked plays, so he decided to be an actor when he finished school at fourteen. He married in 1582 and had three children.
