Twelfth Night

Twelfth Night was once written by Shakespeare as a sneaky Queer party within the norms of the seventeenth century. Because all roles were played by men in England at the time, the love scenes and gender confusion in the play had an added layer. Twelfth Night is a romantic comedy. In the play, Orsinio is in love with Olivia, but Olivia doesn't want to know anything about this. Therefore, Orsinio asks Cesario to convey this love. Cesario does this so convincingly and well that the consequences are cleverly confusing.

Ayden Carlo takes this text by Shakespeare and adapts the play from a contemporary queer perspective into an energetic, swinging and crackling comedy of today, in which one thing is certain, love always triumphs.
