Was ihr wollt
"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.
