Audio & Video Files

If you watch this or another video or listen to an audio recording read along in the text of the play, keep in mind that the directors/producers of recordings may make some changes (use the assigned text version for all writing assignments). In any film, adaptations in set, costume, and era may be present. This is a choice of directors/producers. The movie, She’s the Man, is a contemporary adaptation of Twelfth Night.

Video: A film version of Twelfth Night directed by Kenneth Branagh is currently posted on YouTube.
