Shakespeare's Clowns

Book By: Lane Riosley
Book By: Rebecca Byars
Play #: 1874
Pages: 41 pgs
Cast: 2 m, 2 w

This play is a gathering of some of the most clever characters ever written! It provides examples of the clownish, comic characters written by William Shakespeare in many different kinds of productions through the ages. Far from circus clowns in face paint, these are clowns in the broadest sense, varying in sizes, shapes, ages and types. A few of the characters include the rude Mechanicals in “A Midsummer Night’s Dream,” Constable Dogberry in “Much Ado About Nothing,” the boastful Sir Jon Falstaff in “The Merry Wives of Windsor,” the boisterous sisters Bianca and Kate in “Taming of the Shrew” and others, all showing Shakespeare's timeless versatility. The running conversations of the characters are commentary containing biographical and historical information.
