Unfortunately, there are no birth and death certificates to back up either of these facts. But the traditional custom of the period was to baptise children on the third day after their birth, and bury the dead on the second day after their death. As good luck would have it, in Shakespeare's case there are records of these events taking place on 26 and 25 April respectively.
Officially, the Bard wrote 37 plays (though some people believe he was actually semi-illiterate and didn't, indeed couldn't, have written any of them). There are close to 2,000 household words and phrases still in use today that have their first recorded usage in Shakespeare's works, including: band of brothers, foul/fair play, in a pickle, set your teeth on edge, courtship, majestic and suspicious.
