Umm, Macbeth. The title is a hint, although it doesn't always work out that way in Shakespeare.
King Lear is the Shakespeare play that the character Regan is in. King Lear was written between 1603 and 1606. In the play Regan is the second daughter of King Lear.
Falstaff, who appears in three plays (the two parts of Henry IV and The Merry Wives of Windsor) has more lines than any other Shakespearean character, with 471. Hamlet has the most in a single play (probably because when you conflate the two versions of the play it is way longer than any other play)
In the play, Death of a Salesman, Happy, who presents himself as seemingly unimportant to me has always been the most intriguing character.
Ms. Hannigan, of course! Who cares if Annie is the lead?! Ms. Hannigan is the second lead, needs the most talent to be played, AND she is just plain fun to act out!
Umm, Macbeth. The title is a hint, although it doesn't always work out that way in Shakespeare.
Brutus
The play is called Macbeth because the story centers around Macbeth. Although Lady Macbeth is an important character, she is only the second most important character. In addition, Shakespeare had a habit of naming plays after kings, even if the king is not the most important character in the play (as in Henry IV Parts 1 and 2 and the three parts of Henry VI). So even if you think Lady Macbeth was as important as Macbeth (and I suggest that's tough to argue), the play is still called Macbeth, because he did not write a play called Queen Margaret even if she's more important than Henry VI her husband.
The most important character in a play, story, or poem is often the protagonist, who drives the plot forward and undergoes significant development or change throughout the narrative. Their actions and decisions typically have the most impact on the story's outcome and theme.
Secondary Character
It's hugely important; the setting shapes the character and is so important that it is almost a character itself
The two most important characters in "Romeo and Juliet" are, as the title suggests, Romeo and Juliet themselves. Their tragic love story is central to the plot of the play and drives the events that unfold.
King Lear is the Shakespeare play that the character Regan is in. King Lear was written between 1603 and 1606. In the play Regan is the second daughter of King Lear.

In the play, Death of a Salesman, Happy, who presents himself as seemingly unimportant to me has always been the most intriguing character.
The protagonist in the play "The Odd Couple" is Felix Ungar, who is a neurotic and neat-freak journalist.
The less important character in a play is typically referred to as a supporting character or a minor character. Their role is to complement the main characters and help advance the plot, providing context or conflict but not driving the main storyline.
