Bernd Lafrenz | What You Will - Shakespeare Solo

Book tickets

The beautiful and clever Viola, twin sister of Sebastian, has been separated from her brother in a shipwreck and comes ashore in Illyria. There she decides to go into service with the noble Duke Orsino, but disguised as a man under the name Cesario. Duke Orsino takes a liking to the young nobleman Cesario/Viola and sends him as a messenger of love to the rich Countess Olivia, for whom Orsino pines in love without having been heard so far. Viola/Cesario, who for her part has fallen in love with Duke Orsino at once, is naturally extremely uncomfortable with such errands to the Countess. When the otherwise so unapproachable Countess Olivia falls in love with the messenger of love Cesario/Viola, things seem to go round in circles. In addition, Malvolio, the Countess's steward, is also pining for Countess Olivia and is encouraged by a letter forged by the servants. Feste, the Countess's jester, as well as her uncle Sir Toby Rülps with his friend Sir Andrew Bleichewang have fun with Malvolio.
