| Summary | "Twelfth Night; Or, What You Will" by William Shakespeare is a comedic play written during the early 17th century. The story revolves around themes of love, mistaken identities, and the complexities of human relationships, particularly through the experiences of characters like Duke Orsino and Viola, who is navigating her own feelings in a male disguise. At the start of the play, we are introduced to Duke Orsino, who is consumed by love for the beautiful Lady Olivia, who, mourning her brother's death, is refusing to entertain any suitors. Viola, shipwrecked and separated from her twin brother Sebastian, arrives in Illyria and, believing her brother to be dead, decides to disguise herself as a young man named Cesario to work for Duke Orsino. The opening scenes establish the rich emotional landscape and complexities of love that will unfold, setting the stage for misunderstandings involving Viola's disguise, Orsino's unrequited affection for Olivia, and the humorous schemes of other characters such as Sir Toby and Malvolio.
