Choose 2 scenes in Twelfth Night and state how you would direct themChoose 2 scenes in Twelfth Night and state how you would direct them.Discuss some of the disputes you might face in directing the play toa young auditory sense.Being angiotensin converting enzyme of Shakespeares best romantic comedies, Twelfth Night hasbeen re-enacted many a times, be it during Elizabethan times, or in advanced(a) times. Although set in the Elizabethan era, Twelfth Night hasits charms. And indeed, it proves to be relevant and intimate to amodern audience, with its applicable themes and endearing characters.In directing a play of such mannerism, whiz would have to consider manyfactors affecting the overall effect of the play, and how it brings by its true message and intentions. Hence, I have chosen to directAct 3 Scene 1, as well as Act 2 Scene 3. The reasons why I have chosenthe above scenes, is so as in Act 2 Scene 3, Sir Toby, Sir Andrew,Maria and Feste portray a kind of platonic love, that c an be appliedto a modern audience. In addition, Malvolio is shown forth as thetypical puritan, who is the wet blanket for every party anddiscourages any kind of fun and disorder. This, hence, is alsoapplicable to a modern audience, as the audience see Malvolio as thekind of person everyone would dislike. Thus, later on, when Malvoliois plotted against, the audience can comprehend why. This scene isseen to be a comical one, where humour is the primary(prenominal) theme. Henceforth,Shakespeares theme of comedy still stands, despite later scenes ofseriousness.Act 3 Scene 1 is a scene where we can see Olivias desperate andintensifying infatuation for Viola pouring out uncontrollably. ThroughViolas focused and straightforward rejections, we once again senseher predicament due to her disguise, and also her devotion towards hertask and towards Orsino. On the other hand, the message is broughtforth that perhaps, woman arent always the ones waiting to be wooed.Olivia tries hard to get thr ough her goals (even when she fails), andgives a sense of stubbornness towards her love for Viola (Cesario).Therefore, I have chosen to direct these two scenes.Firstly, Act 2 Scene 4. For this scene, it could be summarized as acomic scene with Sir Toby, Sir Andrew, Maria and Feste having funamongst them. Then, Malvolio, the puritan comes in, and spoils theirfun, insulting them a... ...ness, and brings forth the carefree tone of the play. Overall,this challenge still stands in the sense of wake Shakespearessee-saw method in its best light.Another challenge that I think I would face in directing this playwould be make the costumes fit the Elizabethan times, yet attractingthe modern audience and adding a personal touch to display the play ina way impressing to a modern audience, whom I believe like to watchplays which attract them at first glance. Hence, the clothing could bemodern cum Elizabethan, creating an interesting mix.Yet another challenge would be keeping the audience engag ed and havecontinued interest in the show, so as to bring the show to them fullyand meaningfully. This is important as if the audience cannot stayfocused, the overall effect may be affected. Hence, perhaps the actorscould engage the audience with eye contact and stand in such a way asto not have their backs face the audience (unless completelynecessary).All in all, directing the play of Twelfth Night to a modern audienceproves to be a challenging task, but possible with perseverance inkeeping the overall comedy-romantic genre of the play.
