Two Gentlemen of Verona is a parody by William Shakespeare, predicted to have been composed somewhere between 1589 and 1593. It is viewed by some to be Shakespeare's first play and is frequently viewed as showing his first speculative strides in spreading out a portion of the subjects and themes on which he would later write his plays. For instance, it is the first of his plays where a courageous woman dresses as a boy. The play manages the subjects of friendship and treachery, the conflict between friendship and love, and the stupid way of behaving of individuals in love. The main feature of the play is viewed by some to be Launce, the clownish worker of Proteus, and his dog Crab, to whom "the most scene-stealing non-speaking role in the canon" has been credited. Two Gentlemen is viewed as Shakespeare's most vulnerable play. It has the littlest named cast of any play by Shakespeare.

William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare was born in Stratford-upon-Avon, Warwickshire, in 1564. The date of his birth is unknown but is celebrated on 23 April, which happens to be St George's Day, and the day in 1616 on which Shakespeare died.

Aged eighteen, he married Anne Hathaway. They had three children. Around 1585 William joined an acting troupe on tour in Stratford from London, and thereafter spent much of his life in the capital. By 1595 he had written five of his history plays, six comedies and his first tragedy, Romeo and Juliet. In all, he wrote thirty-seven plays and much poetry, and earned enormous fame in his own lifetime in prelude to his immortality.
