Description

Live performance of Shakespeare's comedy, recorded at the reconstucted Globe Theatre. The play follows the story of the shipwrecked Viola (Johnny Flynn) who disguises herself as a man named Cesario to work for the charming Duke Orsino (Liam Brennan). She soon falls for the Duke but he is in love with Countess Olivia (Mark Rylance), who in turn develops feelings for Cesario.

The situation is further complicated when Viola's twin brother Sebastian (Samuel Barnett) shows up. The all-male production also stars Stephen Fry as Olivia's arrogant steward Malvolio.
