What are interview questions for William Shakespeare?

Answer 1

A lot of people are very interested in Shakespeare's personal life--who he married, who his kids were, and his parents, and where he lived. We can give answers to all of these kinds of questions pretty easily. It is not so easy to answer questions about what kinds of things Shakespeare liked (clothes, food, books, colours and so on) because he left no indication whatsoever about his personal feelings about anything.

Sometimes people ask about how Shakespeare went about writing his plays, which are also difficult questions to answer. We can generally point out what books or plays he got his ideas from, but the process he used to make them into great plays was never recorded.

Some people would like to know exciting and romantic things about Shakespeare's life. Unfortunately most of what we know about him suggests that his life was not really that exciting or romantic. He was a hard worker and a shrewd businessman, and pleasant to get along with.

Answer 2

Sheesh! There is so much we don't know about Shakespeare which we would love to ask him. Start with any question beginning with the words "what is your favourite".

Answer 3

When did you first start writing plays and what was your inspiration to start?

Answer 4

You could ask what were the meanings in certain words and what were the emotions for certain parts in the plays.
