One face, one voice, one habit, and two persons. Wit and foolery reach new heights in this musical retelling of Shakespeare’s raucous romantic comedy. Viola washes up on the shores of Illyria and disguises herself as a man to get a job. She agrees to woo the lady Olivia on her boss's behalf, and it works, but not in the way she intended. Shakespeare Theater Company Academy performs a new twist on this classic love triangle with a contemporary score by Shaina Taub.

Who will believe thee, Isabel? Exposed to the pernicious desires of a city official with zero tolerance for sin, the devoted novitiate Isabella has nowhere to turn for help in the rough and unholy Vienna. Seemingly alone, she faces an impossible choice: sacrifice her soul, or let her brother die. What will she choose? The MFA candidates of Shakespeare Theater Company Academy lay bare the moral twists and turns of human nature in Shakespeare’s darkly comic exploration of corruption and justice.
