Shakespeare's Twelfth Night is a delightful story of displaced twins, misplaced affections, pompous affectations, and love. Follow Viola after her shipwreck as she tries to find her new place in the world, disguised as a young man. The Count Orsino thinks he is in love with the Countess Olivia, but is he really just in love with love? The steward Malvolio is also in love with Olivia but she is way out of his league, then Olivia falls in love with the disguised Viola whom she thinks is a boy.
