The Cobbler It was a was brisk October morning in the great city of Detroit and the trees were just beginning to change from green to the yellows and oranges of autumn. It was dawn, and there was a thin layer of frost blanketing the grass like a sleeping child, and a cobbler shop lights were turning on for a long day's work.

people’s attention. Puns are words that sound the same but have different/ double meanings. Quite a few puns can be read and seen throughout act 1 of this play.

Tyranny is dead! Run hence, proclaim, cry it about the streets!” (3.1.79). Before Caesar died, he was warned to “Beware the Ides

that Caesar will hurt Rome if he becomes the king. This is an important theme because without this theme you would never understand why Brutus wants to kill Caesar.
