@vicrockz89 My thoughts word for word. I had a huuuge crush on this Orsino as a kid and just found out today that it's just Paul. Fucking. Rudd. @_@

Oh my gosh, Sebastian's face when Orsino gets the wrong person!! SO hilarious. :D And I think Orsino is trying not to laugh....

Not a perfect production, but many great moments. I really like Helen Hunt a lot, but something about her voice just doesn't lend itself to Shakespeare's dialogue. Great cast, but the costumes felt like they were from several different plays. Absolutely LOVED the music in this production (all written by Jeanine Tesori).

I loved this version of Twelfth Night!!! I just wish you had showed the part where Paul Rudd got out of the pool. Thank you so much for posting this!

Thank you so much for posting these exerpts. This is the best production I have seen. I would really love to see the part before this afte Olivia calls Caesario husband to the beginning of this if that is at all possible.

we're doing this play right now and in the last week of rehearsals. After seeing this I totally wanted to steal that gag between Orsino and Sebastian...really funny stuff...
