		TWELFTH NIGHT on top of the festive spirit and dramatic forgery and facetious gulling is a search of human identity in all its strangeness and paradoxicality.
		The broad appeal of TWELFTH NIGHT as a good-humored play is sharpened by its comedy of mistaken identity between the long-lost twins Sabestian and Viola.
		By far, this is the best-produced "Twelfth Night." One actually feels he is hearing an actual stage performance with all of the action but with the loss of none of the poetry.

		More particularly, the “twelfth night” was seen as a time of general revelry and mild mayhem, a time when social and sexual mores could be freely flouted.

	Stage Review: Little Lake takes summer theater a step beyond with 'Twelfth Night'
		But you can't go overboard without aiming farther than you've gone before, and the elaborate imagination of this "Twelfth Night" goes beyond what any comparable summer theater around here would attempt, let alone pull off.
		"Twelfth Night" is the one about the young woman who, shipwrecked and separated from her twin brother, disguises herself as a man, falls in love with the Duke, is propositioned by the woman the Duke loves and then gets snarled up with the subplot that pits Sir Toby and Sir Andrew against Malvolio.
		Cameron's "Twelfth Night" is more about globes, stars, clouds, bean bags, jester's gear and a cute little ship, just some of Susan Martinelli's cheery decorations that turn the Lake's in-the-round stage into a version of a rich kid's playroom equipped by the kind of stores that advertise in The New Yorker.
