Ever wanted to know who you’d be in the wild world of Shakespeare? Now’s your chance to find out!
Which Shakespeare Character Are You?
Embarking on a whimsical survey through the Bard's colorful cast of characters might just enlighten you on which Elizabethan shoe fits best. Are you a brooding Hamlet, plagued with existential angst and a penchant for lengthy soliloquies, or are you a puckish Puck, delighting in mischievous antics with a dash of woodland magic? Taking a Shakespeare character quiz is akin to attending a masquerade ball where every mask reveals a fragment of your inner Shakespearean sprite.
Imagine strutting onto the stage of life, soliloquy at the ready, only to wonder: which of Will's personas mirrors your soul? Fear not! By answering a series of probing questions, you may find that your spirit resonates with the ambition of Lady Macbeth, or maybe you exude the unwavering loyalty of the ever-faithful Viola. Your results might just be a comedic twist of fate or a tragic revelation worthy of the Bard’s quill.
Meet the Characters
Get ready to step into the Elizabethan era and strut the stage as you discover which character from Shakespeare's repertoire best matches your personality. Whether you sport the contemplative frown of Hamlet or bear the weight of Macbeth's ambition, it's time to pull back the curtain on Shakespeare's iconic characters.
Erratic Hamlet
Oh, poor you! You might find yourself a little all over the place sometimes, right? Welcome to the club of the Erratic Hamlet. As the Prince of Denmark, Hamlet weaves through a dance of madness and melancholy, with a penchant for flowery yet profound poetry. If you've got a flair for the dramatic and a tendency to question, erm, everything, you might just be ready to "to be or not to be"!
Brooding Macbeth
Are you the ambitious sort, one who might wade through a bit of fog and filthy air to climb the ladder of success? Then Brooding Macbeth is your kindred spirit. This Thane of Glamis has a serious penchant for ruthless ambition and a sprinkling of paranoia. Known for some of the darkest soliloquies in Shakespeare's literature, a little voice whispers you could be the lead in "the Scottish play."
Witty Rosalind
Who says humor and intelligence can't take center stage? It's Rosalind to the rescue with her Witty banter and clever disguises. This plucky heroine from 'As You Like It' is not only literature's original boss lady, but she also crafts some of the sharpest repartees in all of the plays. Your quick wit and bright outlook might just cast you as this wonderful wordsmith.
Mischievous Puck
Do you relish the role of the prankster, making merriment with every opportunity? Then, oh sylvan sprite, revel in being Mischievous Puck! This playful character from 'A Midsummer Night's Dream' embodies the quintessential impish sidekick, turning the night awry with concoctions and craft. If your humor twinkles as brilliantly as fairy lights, this role’s as fitting for you as a cap for a jester.
