But Shakespeare also wrote some ’comedies’

I liked ‘Twelfth Night’ cause it was pretty fun and actually had a real proper love triangle. And a happy ending. I personally didn’t read it be heard a summary of it:

^the link is a summary by overly sarcastic productions which is a channel I love and they summarise lots of stories and folklore and myths and tropes So I highkey recommend em! They the best. I‘m tangenting.

so we probs have two groups. Shakespearian Comedies and ShakespearIan Tragedies.

i can imagine em not carrying bout the royal rebel think as much. They’re probs like ya a comedy or a tragedy? Also will we have theatre kids inception (cause the plays are meant to be performed obv and if someone a theatre kid from the group it could be a good homage I guess)

also ‘A Midsummer Night’s dream’ is wacky but has fairies too. And could have a cottagecore aesthetic

There’s also ‘much ado about nothing’.

EAH just be wildin. They teased it and ran away and were like anyway, nothing to see here

shakespearean stories and their children exisiting in eah is so insane to me bc theyre nowhere NEAR the kind of tone that fairytales are, EVEN IN THEIR ORIGINAL FORMS. like imagine introducing ur story and apple going “i get poisoned by an apple at first:( but then a prince helps me and i get a happily ever after” and the son of hamlet is sitting there like. thats nice
