Frederick is the theatre professor who teaches the students about Shakespeare. Kind and slightly stern, Frederick favors James and often smiles at Oliver, too. He expresses concern for Oliver when he breaks a teacup in his classroom, and the students speculate that he and Gwendolyn might have picked King Lear as the spring play so that he could keep a closer eye on them.

“A good Shakespearean actor—a good actor of any stripe, really—doesn’t just say words, he feels them. We felt all the passions of the characters we played as if they were our own. But a character’s emotions don’t cancel out the actor’s—instead you feel both at once. Imagine having all your own thoughts and feelings tangled up with all the thoughts and feelings of a whole other person. It can be hard, sometimes, to sort out which is which.”
