Act 3

Look at the previous post on Shakespeare’s Plot Structure. Act 3 is typically the climax in Shakespeare’s 5-Act structure.
Act III

SCENE i
1. Why do Bottom, Snout, and Starveling want Quince to write a prologue for their play?
2. How are the actors going to handle the scenery of the moonlight and the wall?
3. Why do all the players run from Bottom as Pyramus?
4. Why does Titania fall in love with Bottom?
5. Bottom says “reason and love keep little company together nowadays.” Why is this such an important statement in the play?
