Shakespeare is arguably one of the greatest playwrights to ever live, and wrote 37 plays and 154 sonnets.

However, there has been some scrutiny about whether he actually wrote all these plays.  He used over 31,000 different words in his plays, yet his only education came from grammar school.  How could he have written such rich plays, and actually invented words and phrases to use in his work with only a rudimentary education?

If he didn't write the plays, then there are 3 likely candidates: Sir Francis Bacon, Christopher Marlowe, and Edward De Vere, Earl of Oxford.

Plays must have emotions to help tell the story and keep it interesting. Standing and just reading your script is boring, you need to "get into your character" to make it more fun. To make your part more interesting you can: flick your hair, cough, stamp your foot, etc.
