On This Day
23rd April
1564 - The Bard, William Shakespeare, is said to have been born on the 23rd of April. So, if he were still alive, he would be well over 400 years old today. Of course no one really knows the exact date of his birth because these things weren't so well regulated back then, but this date has been chosen for him, and it's the thought that counts. Happy Birthday Will!
We do know that he was baptised on April 26th, and that he died on April 23rd 1616.
