Robin Starveling
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Robin Starveling is a character in William Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream. One of the Rude Mechanicals (the tailor), he performs as Moonshine in their performance for the Duke. Starveling is the member of the group that seems to be afraid of just about anything. He looks up to Bottom for leadership, as most of the mechanicals do. Though the court makes fun of all the players, Starveling is most made fun of by Hippolyta.
