Some scholars believe Twelfth Night and Hamlet were written around the same time and bear many similarities. With Twelfth Night closing and Hamlet beginning rehearsals next week, let’s compare and contrast!

Some scholars believe Twelfth Night and Hamlet were written around the same time and bear many similarities. With Twelfth Night closing and Hamlet beginning rehearsals next week, let’s compare and contrast!

* Both feature tragic and comedic elements

* Include important characters who die before the play begins

* The main characters make spur of the moment decisions to “disguise” themselves

* The main characters eventually see a loved one “rise from the dead” who initiates plot points

* Characters question the sanity of themselves or others

	•	Confusion over romantic relationships

* There’s a lot of manipulation: psychological elements, tricksy devices, eavesdropping, etc.

* Characters either seek revenge or declare they will seek it

* Both feature maritime imagery

* It’s important to note Shakespeare’s son, Hamnet, died in 1596 and was survived by his twin sister, Judith

One of our BARDS, Mia, receives feedback on a cold reading from Chappell. The picture is framed from over Mia’s shoulder, which is in focus. Everything else is out of focus.

Two of our BARDS, Kazie and Alister, smile up at the camera while sitting on the floor. The picture is slightly blurry, suggesting the camera was in motion when the picture was taken.
