This team comes from Alex Hancock of Madison, Wisconsin with this exegesis: “Player’s last name must match the most commonly used name for a Shakespeare character. One player per name but I took a bit of leeway on spelling, as some characters’ names are spelled (spelt?) variously in various editions.”
