Twins, Viola and Sebastian, are shipwrecked by a storm each thinking the other to have drowned beneath the waves. Now in Illyria, Viola takes on the visage of a young man calling herself Cesario to protect herself and gain employment from the local Duke, Orsino. Viola’s life becomes filled with the yearnings of the Duke towards one, Lady Olivia, and the lady’s numerous rejections. Viola falls for Orsino, he pines after Olivia, and Olivia falls for Viola’s disguise, Cesario. Things grow even more complicated for this lovestruck trio when Sebastian, Viola’s twin, finds himself in Illyria. These escapades are punctuated by the pranks and revelry of Lady Olivia’s Aunt, Dame Toby Belch. Toby, along with Sir Andrew Aguecheek (her new drinking buddy), Maria (Olivia’s maid), and Feste (the musical fool), set out to seek revenge on the prudish butler, Malvolio. These lives crash together with laughter, songs, swords, and sighs. This modern translation of Twelfth Night captures all of this and brings the story to you ready to be enjoyed anew for those familiar with the Bard’s original text and for the first time viewer alike.
