    The six plays that we have read for this semester could all be re-classified in any number of ways. However I have decided to take a look at some of the underlying themes that would potentially work together to unite otherwise seemingly unrelated plays. The easiest, and most obvious pair that I decided would work well together is Samuel Beckett’s Waiting for Godot and Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead by Tom Stoppard.

    comedy; however the plot and key parts of the play include serious themes like deception, wit and slander which overrule the humorous elements in the play. Beatrice and Benedick’s role could be strongly argued to fulfil the comical relief role and there is a clear contrast between serious themes with the witty characters of Beatrice and Benedick and their “merry-war.” It is evident that without Beatrice and Benedick there would be hardly any humour in the play which could test the autonomy of…

    to play, I learn new things about the game like new strategies, making calculations, and knowing what to do in certain situations.
