    The comic subplots in Shakepeare’s Twelfth Night and Marlowe’s Doctor Faustus function in the overall structures of the plays in many ways.

He is the clueless, cowardly character who is used by other characters to create a humorous scene and plot, and the vehicle Shakespeare used to prove the stupidity of the royal class. In…

While reading the script none of the characters felt real, I felt disconnected to the other lot of them, but, I could understand the struggles of Mrs. Linde and…
