Look at the Cast of Characters in a Shakespearean Play

Essay

Look at the cast of characters in a Shakespearean play you have seen or read. Place each character in a category: major character; minor character; or a character in between-that is, a character with a clear personality but not a large role. Which characters are in opposition to one another? Which characters in the play dominate in the struggle? Is there a reversal of their fortunes? Now, do the same for a blockbuster film.
