But just as Viola falls in love with her new boss, the beautiful Olivia, whom Orsino is pursuing, finds herself attracted to this new young man,who’s really Viola in disguise. Meanwhile, the servant Maria and the drunken Sir Toby Belch conspire to enact a riotous revenge on the hilariously presumptuous servant Malvolio.
