Yesterday evening I went to see a play of Twelfth Night by William Shakespeare. The company that made it changed it, which I think was interesting, because they made it as if the actors were lost fire fighters during the Victorian bush fires, who were acting out the play to pass the time until they were rescued. There were some funny scenes, like when Malvolio was reading the fake love letter supposedly from Olivia, and Maria, Sir Toby Belch, and Sir Andrew Aguecheek were pretending to be box trees, so they could listen. My favourite characters were Viola and Feste , but I didn't like Maria or Sir Toby Belch; I enjoyed the scene at the very beginning where Viola and the ship's captain who rescued her are talking and Viola decides she will pretend to be a man, but found it frustrating when Viola and Sebastian kept on so narrowly missing each other. I was also a little disappointed that Feste didn't sing his song at the end.
