Descrizione
Wash ashore in Illyria, a land of music and melancholy, where a shipwrecked noblewoman disguised as a page boy becomes the center of a romantic triangle. The play combines the elegance of high comedy with the rowdy antics of the drunken Sir Toby Belch and the puritanical Malvolio. Through its exploration of gender, disguise, and the madness of love, it suggests that identity is often a performance. It is a perfect balance of festive disorder and poignant reflection on the fleeting nature of joy.
