SHOW DESCRIPTION: Girl meets boy, falls in love, and wants to marry him. What she doesn't know is that she is really in love with a girl--or does she? Shakespeare's classic "Twelfth Night" is retold as a provocative drama-comedy from the perspective of the females in his play using original Elizabethan-style verse.
