We Love Shakespeare Week -- Classic Couples Quiz


William Shakespeare wrote dozens of love stories.  I'm not going to include all of them here.  But I feel like I've hit the highlights AND included some that will test your knowledge of his stories just a bit.

Your job?  Match up the couples.  For example, and I'm giving you this one because duh, everyone knows it...  Romeo + Juliet

Put your guesses in the comments and I'll post the answers and everyone's scores at the end of the week!

  1. These are the ones I know for certain:
    Romeo and Juliet
    Othello and Desdemona
    Oberon and Titania
    Lysander and Hermia
    Hamlet and Ophelia
    Demetrius and Helena

    And I’m going to guess these:
    Petrucio and Katherina
    Claudius and Portia

    Fun game, Hamlette! Can’t wait for the answers!
