NT Live: Twelfth Night

Drama Simon Godwin directs Tamsin Greig as a transformed housekeeper Malvolia in Shakespeare's shipwreck fantasy of mistaken identities and unrequited love, broadcast live from the stage of the National Theatre in London. Identical twins Sebastian and Viola are shipwrecked off the coast of Illyria when their boat sinks during a terrifying storm. Washed up on shore on opposite sides of the island, not knowing whether the other is alive or dead, the two siblings chart separate paths to the court of Count Orsino.
