A Midsummer Night's Dream Bottom is one of the "Rude Mechanicals" who perform Pyramus and Thisbe for the wedding of Duke Theseus of Athens and his bride Hippolyta.
Shall I Compare Thee to a Summer's Day? by William Shakespeare And it would appear to be about a man, not a woman.
Although it is known as, "Shall I compare thee to a summer's day," this sonnet is also known by sonnet 18.
in compering the warmness of the person to the warmness of summer day
These words are not in a play. "Shall I compare thee to a summer's day?" is the first line of Shakespeare's sonnet number XVIII (18), officially dedicated to the Dark Lady.
Pyramus and Thisbe
The Legend of the Red Mulberries (300th Post!) A long time ago, in an old acient city of Babylon, there lived a handsome youth named Pyramus and a lovely girl named Thisbe. They grew up together in their neighborhood, for their houses were just next door to each other.
Quince's second line is "Here is the scroll of every man's name, which is thought fit, through all Athens, to play in our interlude before the duke and duchess on his wedding day at night." Day and night don't happen at the same time. Quince should have said "on the night of his wedding day."
The Peace Symbol
It shouldn't be humorous or slapstick. The greatest twist is for the actor to play it extermely straight. Forlorn that the onstage audience is laughing at the actors not with them, and are making fun of them, Quince should "suck it up" and play the last speech like serious soap opera, making the onstage women weep and the men uncomfortable. After all in Shakespeare's day all the famous women's roles were played by young men. This gives a great juxtaposition for the cast and thus makes the lovers the fools. Do it as you like it, but that is way I directed it and it worked like a charm.
You could compare him to the Christian-Judail god or the Norse gods Odin and Thor.
