Like other boys of middle-class families，William attended a grammar school in Stratford where he got a good education and also learned Latin.
When William was 18 he married Anne Hathaway.They had three children，first Susanna and then twins，a son named Hamnet，a daughter named Judith.Hamnet died when he was 11.

From 1592 to 1594 the Black Death disseminated across England.Many public places were closed and plays couldn’t be performed either.Shakespeare spent these years writing sonnets(十四行诗) and poems.
When the theatres opened up again in 1594 Shakespeare joined the best acting company of the country—Lord Chamberlain’s Men. It had the best actors，the best writers and the most famous theatre—the Globe.
The Globe was a huge amphitheatre(圆形剧场) without a roof.The seats were curved around a stage that was built on many levels.
Plays always started at 2 o’clock in the afternoon.People who didn’t have the money to buy a seat were allowed to stand in the front of the stage.All kinds of people came to see the shows—housewives，children，noblemen and even visitors from other countries.The company also presented special plays for kings and queens.
