No electricity Women forbidden to act on stage Minimal, contemporary costumes Minimal scenery These control the dialogue. Soliloquy Aside Blood Use of supernatural Types of speech Audience loves to be scared. Let`s play Shakespeare Antony and Cleopatra Coriolanus Hamlet Julius Caesar King Lear Macbeth Othello Romeo and Juliet Timon of Athens Titus Andronicus Use of disguises/ mistaken identity Last speaker—highest in rank (in tragedies) Multiple murders (in tragedies) Multiple marriages (in comedies) “All the world 's a stage, And all the men and women merely players.” So…..
