Title Role
The title character in a narrative work is one who is named or referred to in the title of the work. In a performed work such as a play or film, the performer who plays the title character is said to have the title role of the piece. The title of the work might consist solely of the title character's name – such as '' Michael Collins'' or ''Othello'' – or be a longer phrase or sentence – such as '' The Autobiography of Malcolm X'', '' Alice in Wonderland'' or '' The Adventures of Tom Sawyer''. The title character is commonly – but not necessarily – the protagonist of the story. Narrative works routinely do not have a title character, and there is some ambiguity in what qualifies as one. Examples in various media include Figaro in the opera ''The Marriage of Figaro'', Giselle in the ballet of the same name, the Doctor in the TV series '' Doctor Who'', Harry Potter in the series of novels and films, Romeo Montague and Juliet Capulet in the play ''Romeo and Juliet'', Am ...
