The purpose of the paper is to analyse the limitations and the scope of the given theme, “Action vs. Reaction” on experimenting the characters of Shakespeare's drama. To justify the purpose, a psychological observation of each character on how their system of behaviour works with respect to reactions and actions on particular situation. It is more like a behavioural measurement of dynamic possibilities. Newton’s third law of gravity works divergently in the human emotions, where the characters experience the result of their action as reactions and realise their action later. Though the action comes first, the realization of the action comes only after the reaction. Newton's law explain that the force applied on an object as action and the experience of that object on an applied force as reaction. Shakespearean law of emotion is little disparate to Newton's law where the force applied is not recognized until the character suffers the reaction. Only through the reaction the action is being recognized apart from the question whether the action is good or bad. Most of the times, the action will not be rewarded for resulting in good reaction. The action is bemoaned when the character encounters a disastrous reaction as an effect of his/her action. Thus, the characters under the influence of action and reaction of Shakespeare's select dramas like Othello, Antony and Cleopatra and Macbeth are employed for observations and findings of their outcomes.
