The both have the name Helen. They are both Greek. They are both women. They both deal with supernatural entities (Helen is carried off by Paris with the assistance of the goddess Aphrodite; Helena is involved with fairies). But oh! the difference! Everyone wanted to marry Helen of Troy; Helena couldn't get anyone to want to marry her without the assistance of the fairies.

Well they are both women and they are both called Helen. They are also both Greek, since Helen of Troy was married to Menelaus, a Greek king, and the Shakespeare play is nominally set in Athens.

Can you suggest anything for my Shakespeare performance - eg. any character tips on Helena from A Midsummer Night's Dream?

Helena - keep a disorientated voice. And if you are stumbling around at some point make sure your whole body moves to it's own accord. I went to see a midsummer nights dream and it was very good. Helena had a deep stumbling voice. Demitrus - when you are not in love with helena keep a snotty exterior around her. I love acting! From Bea age 11
