Trick or treat! Dealer's choice or a prompt: Katniss and Peeta's couples costume.
Tumblr media
OH CARA MIA ~ 🖤
I went through so many different options for this before settling on Gomez and Morticia haha but let’s be real Everlark are Addams levels of obsessed with eachother sooo … perfect costume!!
Also it gives Peeta an excuse to be super lovey dovey and cover Katniss in little kisses all night

Didn't have room for the "another play should count as a tragedy, and that one's my favorite" option on this one, gang. So if another play is your favorite tragedy... just suffer, I guess.
Shakespeare poll tag, for all the different genres!

My favourite Shakespeare quotes:
"We know what we are, but know not what we may be" - Hamlet
"All the world's a stage, and all the men and women merely players. They have their exits and their entrances; And one man in his time plays many parts" - As You Like It
"Good company, good wine, good welcome can make good people" -Henry VIII
"This above all: to thine own self be true" -Hamlet
"There is nothing either good or bad, but things making it so" -Hamlet
"I do love nothing in this world so well as you; is not that strange?" -Much ado about nothing
"O happy dagger, This is thy sheath: there rust, and let me die" -Romeo and Juliet
"The fool doth think he is wise, but the wise man knows himself to be a fool" -As You Like It
"Give me my robe, put on my crown; I have Immortal longings in me" -Antony and Cleopatra
"The fault, dear Brutus, is not in our stars, but in ourselves." -Julius Caesar
"Et tu, Brute?" -Julius Caesar
"Lord, what fools these mortals be!" - A Midsummer night's dream
"For she had eyes and chose me" -Othello
"But I will wear my heart upon my sleeve. For daws to peck at: I am not what I am" -Othello
"If she lives till doomsday, she'll burn a week longer than the whole world" -The comedy of errors
"Double, double, toil and trouble; Fire burn, and cauldron bubble!" -Macbeth
"Look like the innocent flower, But be the serpent under it" -Macbeth
"Life ... is a tale. Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, Signifying nothing" -Macbeth

Writ Down In Hist'ry
What shall we be, oh mine lover At which hour we art but withered and old and gray? Shall we be writ down in hist'ry Or shall we disappeareth like light of day?
Shall we be as Helen and Paris Whose loveth set afoot a thousand ships? Or shall we be as Cleopatra with her Mark Where soul met soul on lovers' lips?
Shall we be held apart like Pyramus and Thisbe Sharing kisses through a wall? Or shall we be like Romeo and his Juliet With loveth at each moment destined to fall?
Shall we be as Achilles was to his Patroclus Whose touches did pour out the sun? Or shall we be Apollo to Icarus A fool fated to burn?
Oh, mine lover! we shalt be naught but us In our laughter, shame, and glory I shalt loveth thee evermore As they weaveth tales of our story

Wouldn’t it be funny if the new Netflix Cleopatra documentary by Jada Pinkett Smith DID show Berenice usurping the throne from Ptolemy XII, DID show Arsinoe’s uprising and imprisonment, DID show that the Great Library was more of a university but kind of in decline, DID show that Caesar probably seduced her during the siege of the city in which they worked together closely, DID show Cleopatra lending a navy and running the most organized economy until the USSR and a cosmopolitan city with ethnic Egpytians, Greeks, and the biggest population of Jews outside Judea therefore making it the most historically accurate Cleopatra thing of all time even though the actor playing her does not look Macedonian?

Don't just vote for your fave play, vote for your fave title drop!
If you have another one that I missed, put it in the tags and I might make a second poll!

OK Shakespeare tumblr, is anyone interested in doing a mini bang? I’d totally be down to help organize! Maybe in early next year to have time to plan & build some hype and lead into Shakespeare’s bday??
I want feedback on this post (or in DMs if ur more comfortable) from anyone remotely interested in the idea! I would love Shakespeare tumblr to connect more and would be overjoyed to collaborate with y’all!
