I have to "Create a character" to say the lines from act three, scene four of Hamlet. "To be or not to be" and so on. I don't want to just stick with the original accent, so I have to come up with a character. I originally was just going to do a 'valley girl' type character and be all sassy, but I'm trying to be more interesting. Any ideas?

I would want a tortured soul like Hamlet was, not a valley girl.
