Lear's three daughters become weird sisters who tell Hamlet to kill his new uncle, (Hamlet survived his previous wounds), after Hamlet and his long lost twin brother were shipwrecked and had disguised themselves as twin sisters. They then meet twin sisters disguised as twin brothers, whom they marry, and then the ladies convince them to kill King Duncan, who turns out to be Beatrice in disguise. The merry farce continues until everybody is dead in Act II, and a whole new group of charactershappen by. Kate must marry Romeo. so Juliet shipwrecks herself. Bottom and Falstaff mistake each other for animals, and Oberon gives Richard III a mule head, and in his madness he wanders the heaths in a raging storm that symbolizes Kate's hatred of marriage. Romeo smothers her with his pillow, and then sleepwalks and tries to wash the blood off his hands in the storm on the heath. The MacDuff invades and everybody dies again, which leaves Act V with no living characters, but a great cast of ghosts.
