Each question consists of three names of characters from a Shakespeare play – but which play is it? One thing to watch out for is that Shakespeare sometimes used a name in more than one play, but in every case the three names should direct you to the right answer.

Missed a few but learned a lot in this quiz.
Got 9/10 (though my score didn’t show up)
Got the King Richard one wrong.
This has to be one of your easier quizzes 🙂
I got 6/10. Hmm, I should have done better – darned memory 🙂
Congratulations for the six – commiserations for the four!
I had a lot of Shakespeare in high school so I got nine of these and I was glad that I remembered so well. Great quiz.
Well done! I shall have to have another go, with some more obscure examples!
Please do. I would enjoy that.
I got seven correct answers
Well done! Some of those were certainly more difficult than others.
