Kate

Mr Marlowe, you are a handsome chap but a shallow, cheating bastable!
Kate is The Landlady's daughter and a main character in Upstart Crow. She is very sweet and a goody-two shoes. She really wants to be a star as it is her dream, athough lady acting is illegal. Her most favourite play from Willliam Shakespeare is 'Romeo and Juliet', describing that the 'verse is so beautiful'. This is probably linking it to the famous balcony scene, as Juliet says a speech to Romeo, describing that she will say goodbye to Romeo and farewell him, as the sun rises in the morning.
Using this knowledge, Kate must have been very good in her studies and must have been excellent in English Literature, Grammar, Writing, Spelling and Drama. She also is very good in Languages, as she can speak Italian, Latin, Greek and French. This must have made her very smart and open to things in the world around her.
