Puck A Midsummer Nights Dream pt 3

    For the character of Puck I chose to have Alicia Beth Moore portray the impish fairy. Alicia otherwise known as Pink is perfect for the role of Puck because both have many things in common like their need to make trouble. I also feel that having Puck portrayed as a woman would spice it up from the norm and make things more interesting. Pink is a fun loving, adorable, feisty  and can be very wicked at times much like the character of Puck you can't help but love him/her. A quote that I feel shows some similarities between these twos personalities would be when Puck is speaking to a fairy of Tiania's court and says 

"And sometime lurk I in a gossip's bowl, In very likeness of  a roasted crab, And when she drinks, against her lips I bob And on her wither'd dewlap pour the ale. The wisest aunt, telling the saddest tale, Sometime for three-foot stool mistaketh me; Then I slip from her bum, down topples she, And 'tailor' cries, and falls into a cough; And then the whole quire hold their hips and laugh, And waxen in their mirth and neeze and swear A merrier hour was never wasted there."


This shows that Puck is a very sly fairy who takes enjoyment from pulling tricks on others. And Pink is much the same way she is said to often pull tricks on co-actors before a shooting or when they are relaxing after a long day of filming. These are the reasons why I feel that Pink would make a splendid Puck.
