Shakespeare presentation ideas? ?

Question

OK for Drama me and two others are doing a presentation on William Shakespeare. We've split it up into 3 subtopics - his life before his big break (or London or something? don't know the deets coz I'm not doing it) , life from big break to death,and his legacy. I was thinking someone could be little boy Shakespeare, and then another could be middle aged Shakespeare and the last could be ghost shakespeare but no one wants to actually dress up (except me). Anyway everyone has their information but we don't really know how to present it. How can we do visual and verbal stuff but also keep it really interesting? I want something unique and creative. We have just over a week.

Any suggestions appreciated

thanks

Why not try finding three kinds of head ware, a 16th C cap for young Will, a more affluent period hat for middle will, and maybe a nightcap or nothing for ghost Will. They could just come to a lecturn and read their info, or you could go the power point route and do slides and stuff. or you could develop a dialogue among them
