There's a Portia in Julis Caesar (Brutus's wife) and Portia is also the name of a main character in The Merchant of Venice.
Iris appears in the masque in the Tempest. There is also a character in Antony and Cleopatra called Iras. There is no character called Argus in any Shakespearean play. The mythological figure is alluded to three times in the canon (once by Berowne, once by Portia in Merchant of Venice, and once by Alexander in Troilus and Cressida)

When you say "Shakespeare's Globe" you mean the reconstruction of the first Globe Theatre which opened in London in 1997. The most popular play at Shakespeare's Globe is Shakespeare's Comedy of Errors, which has been produced 5 times, followed by Romeo and Juliet and A Midsummer Night's Dream (4 times each) and Howard Brenton's Anne Boleyn (3 times)

JJ on "Good Times"
While there is no character named 'Elpaba', the character Elphaba Thropp is from the book "Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West" by Gregory Maguire. The Broadway musical "Wicked" is based off this novel and also includes the character Elphaba Thropp.
The line "Cowards die many times before their deaths; The valiant never taste of death but once" is from William Shakespeare's play "Julius Caesar."
