It may be a big year for Shakespeare -- the fact he fell in love brought him several Oscars (albeit posthumously), and his "A Midsummer Night's Dream" and "Titus Andronicus" are due in movie theaters soon -- but his birthday has been left out of (of all places) the Royal Shakespeare Company's official datebook ... because he is not deemed famous enough. While the births of Martin Luther King and George Washington gain a mention in the RSC's 1999 calendar, the world's greatest playwright is missing. RSC spokeswoman Kate Hunter said: "We have asked a number of companies to include Shakespeare in our diary, but they have refused. We really do hope this will change -- after all, he was voted the BBC's Man of the Millennium." For the record, Shakespeare was born in 1664 at the end of April. The exact date is uncertain.
