Twelfth Night

Twelfth Night was produced at California State University, Fullerton in the fall of 2023. I was the costume designer. I worked with a production team that consisted of California State University, Fullerton students and faculty. I was mentored by Fullerton's costume designer professor, Hyun Sook Kim.

Twelfth Night overflows with unrequited love, mistaken identity, love triangles and music in this 1920’s Jazz Age imagining of this classic rom-com. Aristocratic twins Viola and Sebastian are separated in a violent shipwreck only to find themselves washed ashore in Illyria where Duke Orsino is attempting to woo the lovely Lady Olivia. Viola disguises herself as a man (Cesario) to enter the service of the noble Duke and soon finds herself in love with him and tasked with wooing Olivia in Orsino’s name. Sick of the endless pursuit of Orsino as well as the advances of her uncle’s drinking buddy, Sir Andrew, Olivia has taken a vow to forswear love for seven years - an oath she soon forgets when the clever and attractive Cesario arrives. But can Olivia win Cesario’s stalwart heart when he swears his duty and love to Orsino while chaos is unfolding in her household and her much-trusted steward, Malvolio, might be insane? Will the lovers’ knots ever be untied, twins reunited and sanity restored? Only time will tell.
