Abstract

Twelfth Night is a romantic comedy centred on mistaken identity, desire, and festive disorder. After a shipwreck, Viola disguises herself as a man and enters the service of Duke Orsino, creating a love triangle with Countess Olivia. Comic subplots involving Sir Toby Belch and Malvolio add humour and satire. The play explores gender roles, longing, and the fluid nature of love, ending in joyful reunions and marriages
