William  Shakespeare!!! 

today we are celebrating Shakespeare's death. 

He has created  so many plays, such as.

Hamlet Prince of Denmark , Hamlet is Shakespeare's famous 
tragedy and his longest play, it's about a prince named Hamlet who 
is trying to get his kingdom back from his uncle! 

Twelfth Night  that's one of my favorites, fair Viola has lost her brother Sebastian at sea,
Viola thinks Sebastian is dead and Sebastian thinks Viola is dead. Viola has a plan though, 
           she will disguise  herself  as a boy  and go by the name Cesario.

Romeo and Juliet A love story (Which I would put in the category Tragedy) of Fair Juliet and Handsome Romeo falling in love, but they can't get married because their families have been enemies for so many years.... 

As You Like It     *Ahem* Rosalind and her cousin Celia, are watching a boxing match, Rosalind has fallen in love with the young boxer. Surprisingly he wins. but they are unable to marry, and Rosalind is banished from the kingdom. But she has a plan, she and Celia will disguise themselves as a sister and brother.  Rosalind dresses up as a boy because she is taller. Rosalind takes the name Ganymede, and Celia takes the name Aliena. Together they go off into the forest.

The Tempest  Fair Miranda and her father are lost on a deserted Island. Luckily her father Prospero has a spirit for help,Ariel....

These are a few of my favorite plays and Happy Shakespeare...er...day
