Twelfth Hour, at the complete twelfth night; or anything You Want, the satire, published around 1600–02 and printed in 1623 on a copy of an author's draft or probably a playbook, in five acts by William Shakespeare. The twelfth night precedes the main tragedies and issues in order of composition one of Shakespeare's greatest comedies.

The 12th night after Christmas is called after Twelfth night, the close of the Christmas season. Duke (or Count) Orsino is fascinated by Countess Olivia, a lady with a family of his own. Her alleged steward, Malvolio, and Sir Andrew Aguecheek are two other backers.

The Viola and Sebastian twins arrive at this scene; they both think they drowned while trapped in a shipwreck. Viola is a mask and comes into the service of Orsino. Orsino sends her to Olivia as his ambassador — only to get Olivia to enjoy the messenger. The play makes these partnerships more difficult, and then merely untangles them.

TwelfthNight is probably the most perfect of Shakespeare's comedies: the most technological and structural successes, the most united by their wordplay, plots, characters and the darkest. Twelfth Night explores certain profound facts about the essence of marriage under both its cross-dressing and mistaken identities. 

As all Shakespeare's plays, in Twelfth Night there are several topics. These topics are thoroughly clarified in this analysis with profound attention to the detail. Twelfth Night is one of the most successful Shakespeare comedies because of its excellent themes and impeccable presentation of human psychology. It allows one to ask questions such as the essence of love and disappointment: questions that are impossible to address or examine.

The image, Twelfth Night, is a witty and celebrated mastery of William Shakespeare. This mastery is illustrated by the title of the play. The play also demonstrates the language of Feste being humorous and enjoyable, as well as comedic and romantic depending on their circumstance and background, though it is ironic that Olivia and Malvolio will appear on stage. Sir Toby and Sir Andrew are equally careful and sarcastic, though their vocabulary is still their own. Sometimes, Shakespeare used words, metaphors, and overuse of similes appropriate for prose and poetry, which represents the mood and sound of the characters.

Twelfth Night marks the climax of early comedy success by Shakespeare. In the most dynamic framework that Shakespeare already built the impacts and ideals of previous comedies are unconsciously expressed. The playing is also anticipating: Viola's clear-eyed and affirmative view of her own and the world's rationality is a victory we desire and yet we know that she is in danger and that virtue masked is only completely victorious when evil is present; and the play is an integral part of her "perfection."

The action of this play is rather fragmented, and the characters are simply impelling; this feature alone contrasts with the deliberation of Bard's work's most emblematic characters. In the tangled web of misplaced identities that defy sex bias and preconceived ideas about sexual orientation or heartbreak, complaint or mockery, the main attractivité of this comedy should not be expected. Instead, it is to be found in the musicality of the language that shines brighter in Orsino's interventions and the sagacious interludes of the Fool.

This wild play's riotous undertone calls for the contradictions that all of us carry within us that keep us awake at night, tossing and changing, asking ourselves what we expect from life, from the longing for love and love, but especially from the hidden desires that we never ose bringing to light that Shakespeare had never avoided. He challenges us to be brave and confront them and take "what we will" from our next step.
