Comedy through language: Shakespeare's comedies are peppered with clever wordplay, metaphors, and insults.
Love: The theme of love is prevalent in every Shakespeare comedy. Often, we are presented with sets of lovers who, through the course of the play, overcome the obstacles in their relationship and unite. Of course,​ that measure isn't always foolproof; love is the central theme of "Romeo and Juliet" but few people would regard that play as a comedy.
Complex plots: The plots of Shakespeare comedies have more twists and turns than his tragedies and histories. Although the plots are convoluted, they do follow similar patterns. For example, the climax of the play always occurs in the third act and the final scene has a celebratory feel when the lovers finally declare their feelings for each other.
Mistaken identities: The plot of a Shakespearean comedy is often driven by mistaken identity. Sometimes this is an intentional part of a villain’s plot, as in "Much Ado About Nothing" when Don John tricks Claudio into believing that his fiance has been unfaithful through mistaken identity. Characters also play scenes in disguise and it is not uncommon for female characters to disguise themselves as male characters.
Shakespeare’s comedies are the most difficult to classify because they overlap in style with other genres. Critics often describe some plays as tragic-comedies because they mix equal measures of tragedy and comedy.
For example, "Much Ado About Nothing" starts as a comedy, but takes on some of the characteristics of a tragedy when Hero is disgraced and fakes her own death. At this point, the play has more in common with "Romeo and Juliet," one of Shakespeare’s key tragedies.

We’ve all been taught in school how Shakespeare’s plays tend to fall into one of two categories—comedy or tragedy—but sadly it’s never fully appreciated how the bard’s innovations have helped shape the comedy genre as we know it today. Though not a comedian by any stretch, Shakespeare’s penchant for clever puns and wordplay have nevertheless proved influential across the ages, as has his frequent use of comic devices and his embrace of a light-hearted tone.
Shakespeare’s lack of joke-telling and quipping is often counterbalanced by his imaginative use of insults, a legacy which itself has left a mark upon the development of humorous writing well into the Jacobean era and beyond. However, there are notable narrative elements which tend to underpin most of Shakespeare’s comedies, and once you recognize them it’s almost impossible not to notice their usage in many modern works too. Even more, as writers we can take these elements and play upon them in our own writing for comedic effect.
Here are the most commonly-recognized elements of Shakespearean comedy. [10, 1]
