*TWELFTH NIGHT
With the writing of Twelfth Night, Shakespeare reached perhaps his highest achievement in sheer comedy, the comedy of entertainment
and gaiety without any, So skillful is Shakespeare's treatment of his material that audiences forget the plot turns on an improbable
set of circumstances, coincidences, and mistaken identities. The predominant theme of the play is love. Youth, fantasy, and laughter
have made Twelfth Night endure. It is the happiest play Shakespeare wrote. The plot is sheer fantasy: improbable, exotic, romantic. Funded in part with a grant from the Nevada Arts Council, a state agency, and the National Endowment for the Arts, a Federal agency. | |
