About the play:

After being separated from her twin brother Sebastian, Viola disguises herself as a young man and enters the service of Duke Orsino—only to fall in love with him. Orsino, however, is hopelessly devoted to Countess Olivia and sends Viola to woo her on his behalf, unaware that Olivia soon falls for Viola instead. Join us for a whirlwind ride through love, parties, and delightful confusion, all set to the jazzy rhythms of the Roaring Twenties in one of Shakespeare’s most beloved comedies.
