Response paper due in commonplace book by the 23: Character Study

Midsummer Night's Dream showcases some intriguing, yet frustrating, characters. What's bothering Titania, really? How can Bottom be so asinine and yet so perceptive? Why can't we tell the four lovers apart? What motivates Puck? Who is Theseus?

For this short response paper (to be stored in your Commonplace Book and submitted for review on the 23rd of January) choose a character from this play to explore.  What do you find interesting about her? If you were to perform her part, how would you interpret her words and actions? Is she believable or overblown, flat or complex? Does she bug you? Why?
