Silvio was played by tenor Guy Elliott, who moved easily between his disguises and whose larger-than-life characterizations did much to ensure the work’s success… His singing was very expressive, always with an eye to eliciting an extra laugh.

"Elliott was a pugilistic Pasquin and relished the physical theatre; he threw himself over sofas and tables with aplomb, and his tenor was no less agile."
