The main character of the story, Nat Field is a boy who is missing a father figure in his life. He also has no mother so he lives with his Aunt Jen. Aunt Jen was the one who inspired him to start acting when his dad died. He is passionate in acting, and gets recruited to an acting troupe recreating Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream. When he goes back in time, he experiences the play as it just comes out. He struggles with the shadows of his past (the death of his parents) and finds a warm father figure in Shakespeare. He is devastated when, just as he got used to Elizabethan times, everything is snatched from him again.

A mischievous boy whom Nat meets during his 'visit' to the Elizabethan times, Roper hates Nat at first. His dislike is caused by simple envy, as the Nathan Field from that time was a privileged, soft actor from a prestigious, rich school while Roper (and the rest of the boy actors) had been thrown into the real world at the age of ten, apprenticed to actors and learning by experiencing. Roper is an excellent tumbler and fencer and cannot stand having someone better than him. On his first day, Nat confidently showcases tumbling that surpasses Roper's, so Roper takes vengeance by attacking him ferociously in fencing, of which Nat has little experience. Roper nastily tries to get Nat into trouble during the plays, and laughs at him when he is horrified at a bear pit. Later, when Nat applies the Heimlich Manoeuvre to save Roper from choking, then saves the play by substituting in for the sick boy. Roper repents from hating Nat for his talent and becomes slightly more tolerable.

A famous poet and playwright of the 16th century, his character serves as a father figure to Nat, helping him overcome his depression and loss. He is described as calm, warm, and rich in character. He dislikes thribbling , where actors make up impromptu lines. Nat has time traveled to save him from catching the bubonic plague from Nathan Field, as most of his greatest work was written after this time. Shakespeare plays Oberon, the king of fairies, alongside Puck.
