Huh, One I have not read or seen...
Your Score: Measure for Measure
You scored 34% = Tragic, 58% = Comic, 15% = Romantic, 44% = Historic

You are Measure for Measure. Originally classified as a comedy but now regarded amongst the "Problem Plays", Measure for Measure is a story of truth, justice, mercy, forgiveness, and humility. What your score tells us about you is that you are most likely an outgoing person, who believes in doing what is right. While you may sometimes abuse your power in certain situations, for the most part you are kind-hearted and sincere. Not that abusing your power is necessarily a bad thing. Remember, as the play tells us "some rise by sin, and some by virtue fall." We just want to make sure you don't get too greedy for power and end up like that Macbeth guy!

Me too, although the % are not nearly close. Saw this again just last summer at the Globe. It's not 100% a comedy, but there's not really any tragedy, I think it has become a problem because of the bargain the Duke offers (and subsequently reneges on). I'd be curious to know how an Elizabethan would have viewed that deal vs. a 21st century inhabitant.
