The Bard On The Forum

[an capall]

I am not great on oul Shakespeare, but was wondering that if he were to write a play about TalkingHorses, who would be his character equivalents?

For example.

Hamlet: PDJ

Othello: Merlin :shy: !!!!

Falstaff: Hartigan

Macbeth: Desert Orchid

Romeo: Gearoid

Mercutio: Bar the Bull

Hubble: Krizon

Juliet Trudi

Bubble: Kathy

Hamlet Father’s Ghost: Steve Miller

Toil: Songsheet

Richard II Phil Waters

Trouble: Shadow Leader

Juliets Nurse: Headstrong

Puc: Euronymous

Henry V Overbruv.

Ophelia Aldiniti

Colinfarraeleous An Capall







Any others??

 

[Merlin the Magician]

A-C as LAGO............ :teeth:

 

[PDJ]

You mean Iago?

So I want to avenge the death of my father eh? Excellent!

 

[krizon]

I think you'll find that's Mercutio - Mercution is being executed by mercury poisoning.

I see - all the wimminfolk get to be the witches. Well, at least we know who's going to be boiled alive in the pot.

 

[PDJ]

Some of the witches more appropriate than others...

 

[Aldaniti]

& I can swim :lol:

 

[krizon]

Double, double, toil and trouble -
Fire burn, and cauldron bubble!
Eye of newt and leg of toad -
Let's put An Capall in this load.

I don't actually see 'Hubble' featuring too strongly, AC, but if you're implying I'm remarkably far-sighted, thank you.

 

[Ardross]

There is of course the often cut role of " Hecate " .

How about Solerina for Desdemona - Merlin has sometimes seemed like he has wished to throttle her . :lol:

I am delighted to play Henry IV by the way

 

[krizon]

:angy: I thought it was entirely mutual, Ardross?

 

[Ardross]

OK Lady Macbeth - Solerina - Merlin Duncan


I would not put you down as Hecate - Aunty K - how about Mistress Quickly ?

 

[ovverbruv]

Once more unto etc etc etc

 

[krizon]

Or as it is at the moment:

Once more unto the beach, dear mates,
To loot the Napoli's fine crates
Of bikes and perfumes, and of booze -
It's like duty free, without the cruise!

 

[ovverbruv]

:lol: :lol:

 

[trudij]

all the wimminfolk get to be the witches

ahem. :lol:

much as I hate to be typecast - i feel that I am perfectly suited to my role.... :brows: :lol:

 

[trudij]

and as long as he brings the baileys - Im fairly happy with the romeo



:shy:

 

[Muttley]

Oh, Trudi! He'll expect you to wear a gymslip over your stockings and suspenders and to tie him up with your old school tie!!!

 

[Merlin the Magician]

Mutts that's her normal-daily attire ........

 

[Bar the Bull]

Mercutio, eh?

Am I really that verbose?

It'll do though, as he always seemed a good egg.

 

[uncle goober]

I was not angry since I came to talking horses until this moment!

 

[Shadow Leader]

Hmm, either that or Kate I'd have thought AC - not that I'd be tamed of course....

 

[Songsheet]

Too right 'Toil' - and not a thank you for it either, My Lord Colin F..

The quality of this Mod's mercy is most definitely getting strained, I can tell you.....

So's the waistband of my jeans, unfortunately...

 

[trudij]

I wondered who the bloke is that watches me ride oou every day - now I know its you Merlin!! :lol:

 

[Merlin the Magician]

Could just be.. TRUDE..... I'm only an hour away from you...........

 

[Desert Orchid]
