How is Malvolio from Twelfth Night a comedic character?
Malvolio is what they called in Shakespeare's day a "humourous man", a person excessively dominated by a particular characteristic. Tormenting such a person is an element in several comedies. In Malvolio's case, his dominating humour is pride, and the belief that he is more than just a steward. In one scene and in one scene only does the sending-up of Malvolio's vanity reach truly hilarious proportions, and this is the scene where he reads the cryptic letter he supposes to be from Olivia. The scene where he appears before Olivia cross-gartered and smiling is also pretty funny. Watch a performance of either of these scenes by any competent actor (Alec Guinness or Nigel Hawthorne are both recommended) and you will see what I mean.

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.
