[Helena]

There's a fantastical beauty about Shakespeare. His plots are endlessly twisted; yet eased with grace. And even though his characters experience outrageous comings - you find you can relate to them, as well as their situation. Helena is my absolute favourite character (and we share the same name... oddly enough). She is the unspoken voice of infatuated women, and even though her character depicts desperation, she conveys a sense of strength all women have: she strives for what she wants, and she shan't take 'no' for an answer.
