My group members and I started the choreography finding multiple connections between the two books, such as: fights between main characters, secret relationships and fate, and started to think of movement phrases to go with these connections.

Throughout his writing, William Shakespeare was never shy about conveying his beliefs. Shakespeare was a man who stood behind order and the maintenance of the status quo, as evidenced by his writings, and especially Twelfth Night, which features characters that interrupt society. Shakespeare makes it clear in his writing; interrupting business as usual is a cardinal sin. Although he allows characters like Viola, Orsino, and Antonio, to rock the boat for comedic effect, Shakespeare restores order by the end of the play. This is evidenced through the heroine Viola, her brother Sebastian, as well as Orsino and Olivia.
