Antonio - 2025 ACF Regionals

Question

Emma Smith’s This is Shakespeare points out a noticeable silence in which a character with this name only delivers four lines while otherwise not speaking on stage for 20 minutes. For 10 points each:

[10m] Give this name of a sea captain from Twelfth Night whose departure from Sebastian may be read as homoerotic. In The Tempest, a usurping Duke of Milan with this name is silent after being forgiven by his brother Prospero.

ANSWER: Antonio

[10e] Isabella stands silently after the Duke proposes marriage to her at the end of this problem play, in which the Duke wears a disguise after banning fornication in Vienna. Its title features the same word twice.

ANSWER: Measure for Measure

[10h] Smith also points out this character’s pregnant silence after Valentine offers her to her would-be-rapist Proteus. A song addressed to this character asks “Is she kind as she is fair?”

ANSWER: Silvia [accept “Who is Sylvia?”] (She appears in The Two Gentlemen of Verona.)
