Shakespeare's Twelfth Night, also known as What You Will, is a comedy which centers on mistaken identity, love, and gender roles. We will be exploring these themes in the Victorian Steampunk Era, which contemporizes the show, while allowing the characters' struggles to remain relevant.

In Illyria, Duke Orsino is sick with love with Lady Olivia, who is in mourning for her recently deceased father and brother. To honour their memory, she has sworn to live like a nun for seven years and refuses to receive any messages from Orsino.

Twins Viola and Sebastian are separated by a shipwreck at sea and each believes the other to be dead. Viola disguises herself as a man and secures a position as Orsino's page. After gaining his trust, she is asked to court Olivia on his behalf, and agrees even though she has fallen in love with him herself.

Olivia soon falls for the mysterious and smooth talking Viola, still disguised as Orsino's page, Cesario, thus completing the complex love triangle. To complicate things further, Olivia's lady-in-waiting Maria, Olivia's aunt Lady Toby Belch, and her friend Sir Andrew conspire to make her haughty steward, Malvolio, believe that Olivia is in love with him.

Playhouse South's production of Twelfth Night is directed by Sara Bortz, with assistant director Crystal Kushmaul.
