Plays

[lathany]

Which plays are well enough known that the average¹ reader would:
(a) have heard of
(b) know one or more characters of (specifically the male lead).

I want a choice of plays for a piece of writing I'm doing.

¹ No, I wouldn't like to define average. Take your best guess!

The piece of writing is set in England. American isn't a problem in itself, but my criteria mean that it has to be something that'd also be performed on this side of the Atlantic.

Aside from Shakespeare, I'm not terribly familiar with English theater, so I probably won't be much help, then. If I think of anything else, I'll let you know, though!

I've heard of all three of those plays, so they're probably good options.

I wasn't considering you in the list of average :-)
