I've read that some researchers believe Shakespeares' works were actually written by Queen Elizabeth I. I'll look around, see what I can find. Had some interest in this during senior english WAY back in high school. Funny what sometimes surfaces from the past.
But, wait...he did write "AS YOU LIKE IT," and "TWO GENTLEMEN OF VERONA."
Hmmmm...
And rumor has it that the Scottish Play was originally entitled, "MacBESS." That was before he decided to write it with a lisp.
