Antonio's Revenge is a late Elizabethan play written by John Marston and performed by the Children of Paul's. It is a sequel to Marston's comic play Antonio and Mellida, and it chronicles the conflict and violence between Piero Sforza, the Duke of Venice, and Antonio, who is determined to take revenge against Piero for the death of his father and the slander of his fiancée (Piero's daughter Mellida, to whom he is bethrothed at the end of Antonio and Mellida). While it has much in common with other revenge tragedies (particularly Shakespeare's Hamlet), it is sometimes read as a hyperbolic parody of the genre.

  • La vendetta di Antonio (Antonio's Revenge) è un'opera teatrale del drammaturgo elisabettiano John Marston, scritta presumibilmente tra il 1600 e il 1601 e pubblicata nel 1602. L'opera è il sequel della commedia di Marston Antonio e Mellida e racconta del violento conflitto tra Piero Sforza e Antonio, determinato a vendicarsi per la morte del padre e le calunnie contro la fidanzata. Per quanto l'opera presenti tratti in comune con il genere della tragedia di vendetta (e, in particolare, Amleto), diversi critici sostengono che La vendetta di Antonio sia una parodia di questo genere teatrale piuttosto che una revenge tragedy vera e propria.
