Was Shakespeare a stoner?

If you mean Upstart Crow(the derogatory name assigned by Greene to Shakespeare in his pamphlet A Groatsworth of Wit), I cannot recommend the TV series highly enough.
Brilliant comedy writing by Ben Elton, you need little or no real knowledge about Shakespeare to enjoy it.The pathos of the episode when his son dies is up there with the last of the Black Adder WW1 series.

The "trope" of cancelling Shakespeare is beyond stupid.
You can't cancel Shakespeare It's not possible. He is so ingrained in Western culture. read this.
