Hello! 13, 14 & 18!
thank you! :)
13. An underrated/underrepresented character
Benvolio in Romeo and Juliet! I feel like Mercutio gets all the love because heโs dramatic and gay and all around a very very excellent boy, but Benvolio is like the poor mom friend who tries to deal with everyoneโs drama and deserves more love (heโs the combeferre).
fun benvolio fact: romeo and juliet was a really well known story and brookeโs 1562 poem, โthe tragical history of romeus and juliet,โ is probably the source text that most renaissance authors would have been familiar with and benvolio isnโt in it! shakespeare specifically decided to include this obviously fictional character in his retelling of a historical narrative and that means he is (or at least shakespeare thought he was) cool and important!
14. An underperformed/underrated play
maybe the tempest? iโm sure thereโs better answers for this one, but this is just what i can think of right now. itโs definitely not underrated but it is hard to do well and iโve never seen it live and really want to!
18. The question youโd ask William Shakespeare if you were drinking in a pub
do u even vape bro?? (except maybe not hahaha)
ask me shakespeare things
