Act 1, Scene 2 and Act 2, Scene 1 in "Twelfth Night" both involve shipwrecks and characters grieving the loss of loved ones. In both scenes, Viola/Cesario is involved in emotional exchanges with other characters (Olivia and Orsino respectively). These parallel scenes set a tone of melancholy and mistaken identities that drive the plot of the play forward.

Is night or darkness good in Romeo and Juliet?

Usually, yes. The Party scene and the Balcony Scene are night scenes and they are all about Romeo and Juliet's love. Act 1 scene 1 and Act 3 scene 1 are day scenes and that is when the fighting happens. Even in Act 4, the Capulets are all happily planning the wedding at night, but in the morning they find it will be a funeral instead. However, the final scene of the play, which is not good at all, is a night scene.


What is the name of William Shakespeare's funniest play?

Everyone will have a different answer to this, because people have different senses of humour. The comedies are not funny all the way through--there are scenes which are very serious and painful in almost all of them. Certain scenes, however, are hilarious. These include the scene in Twelfth Night where Malvolio reads the forged letter, the scenes in Much Ado where Benedick and Beatrice eavesdrop, the scene in Merry Wives where Mrs. Ford and Mrs. Page discover that Falstaff has sent them copies of the same love letter, the scene in Comedy of Errors where Dromio describes his twin brother's wife, and the amateur play in Midsummer Night's Dream.

Does Maria have scenes with Antonio the captain in Twelfth Night?

No. Antonio is in three scenes: in the first it is just him and Sebastian. In the second he comes to Viola's aid during her "duel" with Sir Andrew and is thereafter arrested. Maria is not in this scene. Finally, Antonio is brought before Orsino for judgment in the last scene, where the story he tells is part of the unravelling of he mystery of Viola and Sebastian. Although he does not apparently leave the stage until the play ends, Maria is not present during this scene to answer for herself when the forged letter is discovered. Instead Fabian tells about how she forged the letter and how, as a result, Sir Toby has married her.
