This paper illustrates that Shakespeare opens the play with interesting characters and a sober atmosphere in which Antonio is sad for reasons that himself least understand. He is joined by a group of comical friends who in a bid to find out the basis of his sadness, makes fun of the situation. This represents the lively life of Venice. moreover, Venice is represented as a place of money and business while Belmonte is a place of love. In the Court, Portia and Nerissa disguise to act as a lawyer and a clerk respectively to help out Antonio escape death in Shylock’s hands. Much of this disguise has to do more of teaching their husbands the value of love and marriage. Similarly, Jessica disguises as a man to escape from her father’s house to elope with Lorenzo. She is very ashamed in her attire, but Lorenzo encourages her on.
