When Viola and her twin Sebastian find themselves separated and shipwrecked in the far off land of Illyria, they assume one another dead. Through hidden identity, new love, and a little bit of music, Twelfth Night follows the journeys of Viola, Sebastian and the residents of Illyria as they grasp for joy despite the immeasurable grief and tragedy that surround them. Whether it is the grief of loss, unrequited love, or something more existential, each character asks us to consider questions as relevant now as they were four hundred years ago: when weare surrounded by grief and tragedy, how does hope persist? What can we cling to to keep us on our individual journey to joy? And how must we appreciate what we have, even when the world around us is full of hardship, uncertainty and fear?
