Twelfth Night

William Shakespeare

Twelfth Night or What You Will is a slapstick, almost modern, romantic comedy concerning passion, romance, mistaken identities, and practical jokes. Viola has been separated from her twin brother Sebastian in a shipwreck off the shore of Illyria. Ashore, Viola disguises herself as a boy, calling herself Cesario, and becomes a servant to the Duke Orsino of Illyria. Thinking she/he is a boy, the Duke sends Viola to pursue the Countess Olivia on his behalf, but the Countess falls in love with Cesario! Things gets even more confusing when Sebastian finally turns up. This is chaos and comedy at its best. After all, it was written by the master himself, William Shakespeare.
