Happy Thursday! Where many people might have only seen questions about sports equipment, a Florida city, and a DNA scientist, several clever Tightrope players clocked mentions of Puck, Orlando, and Rosalind while figuring out yesterday's hidden theme: William Shakespeare!
While Marco Polo does not specifically appear in The Merchant of Venice, there is no denying the Italian trader and explorer was certainly a merchant from Venice. It's a bit of folly, but the course of Tightrope hidden themes never did run smooth!
Thank you to everyone who wrote in! You are such stuff as dreams are made on! Special shout-outs to the following bardolaters for their hasty replies: Sue Lane in Essex, UK; Chris D. in Chelmsford, UK; and Shelly Shalev in Israel.
