Antlers?

One of the most comically compelling Shakespearian characters is Sir John Falstaff, the charming, scheming rogue at the center of the farcical events in The Merry Wives of Windsor. Falstaff, the operatic adaptation by composer Giuseppe Verdi and librettist Arrigo Boito, is one of the fall 2011 productions by the University Opera Theatre.

The antlers play a role in the final scene; Falstaff has been tricked into wearing them by one of the married women he is trying to seduce, and is subsequently mocked and humiliated as his elaborate plans to swindle the women unravel, naturally to much hilarity and merriment.
