Dramatis personae with characters and acts

The top of this page is a simple dramatis personae, which we format as a list; unwrapped, single-spaced. The bottom looks like a table of contents, but without the page numbers, and that's how it was formatted. Note that the scene numbers go inside the small caps markups, but the colons, which are separators, go outside.
