La Nuit des rois
ou Tout ce que vous voulez
A party for the end of the world!
The plot of La Nuit des rois ou Tout ce que vous voulez is based on a transvestite: the main character, Viola, shipwrecked and believing her twin brother Sebastian dead, disguises herself as a man under the name Cesario to enter the service of Duke Orsino. This cross-dressing creates a series of misunderstandings and questions the norms and freedoms that society imposes on us according to our gender, in this case masculine or feminine, in the face of our own desires and aspirations. The very space of the play, like that of the stage, becomes the terrain where desire and appearance will meet and collide.
Will each∙e, character or spectator∙rice, be able∙elle to trust her judgment?
