Preview in the X (Twitter) DM look
How was everything?
The soup was a tragedy in three acts.
I will tell the chef.
The bread was a comedy.
Shall I bring dessert?
Parting is such sweet sorrow, but yes.
One pudding.
To be, or to be seated, that is the question.
The full script (8 messages)
The first four messages open on the Free plan; the rest need a paid plan.
The template: Shakespeare reviews a restaurant
Load Shakespeare reviews a restaurant and you get eight messages. Waiter opens with "How was everything?", William Shakespeare closes with "To be, or to be seated, that is the question.", and the read-through runs roughly 26 seconds.
Look at message 8, "To be, or to be seated, that is the question.", which runs 10 words, then at message 7, "One pudding.". Two of the lines are questions and each pulls a reply out of the other side.
Using it in the X (Twitter) DM look
Let one figure explain something unrelated at length while another waits for an answer. X (Twitter) DM is one of the looks open to everyone on the Free plan. Extras in this look: read marks and reactions; missing: typing dots and an online status. Two or three figures per chat is plenty; more makes the scene hard to follow. A "Seen" line under your last message marks that it was opened, so a story can hinge on a message that sits there unanswered.
What the Free plan shows
The Free plan opens the first four messages and two people, so Shakespeare reviews a restaurant would stop at "The bread was a comedy.". The other four, through "To be, or to be seated, that is the question.", need a paid plan with a higher message limit and up to four people.
Tips
- Hold message 5, "Shall I bring dessert?", a beat longer than the rest.
- Start on "How was everything?" and let viewers read it twice before William Shakespeare replies.
- Two or three figures per chat is plenty; more makes the scene hard to follow.
- Change one word of William Shakespeare's closing "To be, or to be seated, that is the question." so the ending is yours, then caption the video as a fictional chat.
- Rename William Shakespeare and Waiter to keep the story original, and keep every character an invented adult.

Is this history chat chat a real conversation?
No. It is an invented chat between William Shakespeare and Waiter, made as a mock-up. ChatsRat is not affiliated with, endorsed by or sponsored by any messaging app, and look names describe a style only. Label what you publish as fiction.
Can I change the names and lines?
Yes. Open the template in the editor, replace any line or name and export your own version. Keep the characters invented, and keep the content free of real people and anything sexual.
This is fiction. The people in this template are invented (the historical figures lived long ago and nothing here is a real quotation). ChatsRat makes mock-ups and fictional conversations for creators, designers and teachers. Do not use it to pass off a made-up conversation as a real one, to impersonate a real person, or as proof of anything. See the Acceptable Use policy.
