Was ihr wollt by William Shakespeare

"Was ihr wollt" by William Shakespeare is a romantic comedy written around 1601–1602. When twins Viola and Sebastian are separated by shipwreck, Viola disguises herself as a young man and enters the Duke's service. A tangled love triangle emerges: Viola loves the Duke, who loves Countess Olivia, who falls for Viola's male disguise. Meanwhile, a mischievous subplot unfolds as servants trick the pompous Malvolio into believing Olivia loves him. Mistaken identities multiply until the twins' eventual reunion unravels the romantic confusion. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
