Twelfth Night
The dramatic effectiveness of a scene refers to the means and devices by which an author engages and maintains successfully the interest of the audience. This may be done through the presentation of characters, through forms of conflict within the play and through a climax. At this point in the play, we meet Feste and Malvolio, both in their professional roles and in the first meeting between Cesario and Olivia takes place. From this perspective, I am going to discuss, in particular, the presentation of Feste, Malvolio, Olivia and Viola, the relationships in which these characters are involved and the main themes and plots established in this scene.Act 1 Scene 5 opens dramatically involving tension between Maria and Feste, however, Shakespeare quickly provides light-hearted and witty conversation between these two characters. Initially, Maria threatens Feste because he was not where he should have been. This heightens the tension, conflict and passion when Maria warns Feste, “My Lady will hand thee for thy absence.” At this point, Feste is defined as the fool as he subverts her threats and comically replies, “Let her hang me: he that is well hanged in this world needs to fear no colours.”
