Twelfth Night Or What You Will

Description

Twelfth Night is a delightfully comic tale of mistaken identities. It revolves around the physical likeness between Sebastian and his twin sister, Viola. When they are separated after a shipwreck, each believes the other to be dead. The theatrical romp begins when Viola assumes the identity of Cesario, a page in the household of the Duke of Orsino. The Duke becomes enamored of the Countess Olivia. But she spurns him for the newly arrived young page. The comical machinations of Malvolio, Sir Toby Belch, the maid Maria, and Sir Andrew Aguecheek add to the ensuing confusion. The reunion between Viola and Sebastian resolves all of the conflict pleasantly. Filled with some of the finest comedic scenes in the English language, this entertaining masterpiece remains one of Shakespeare’s most popular and most performed comedies.
