Shakespeare had some themes that he usually wrote about: the fight between good and bad, love’s great effect on people, and the difference between first appearance and a person’s true personality or face. Shakespeare also wrote his play in a certain style. For example, Shakespeare used words in such a clever and humorous way that they had more than one meaning. Some of the characters changed their appearances so that people didn’t know who they were. Even though the tone is lighter in these plays.
