Why is Twelfth Night called a comedy?
Twelfth Night is one of only two Shakespearean plays which has an alternate title, which is "What You Will". (The other play, incidentally, is Henry VIII, also known as "All is True") However, there was another play written at about the same time called What You Will. Some people have speculated that Shakespeare's play was originally only called What You Will and was given the second title to avoid confusion. Some authors have tried to connect the events of the play with the "Lord of Misrule" celebrations of Twelfth Night, but Shakespeare's Illyria is a stable and stratified society, and the subplot vilifies and punishes someone (Malvolio) who tries to act above his station, the exact opposite of what happened during the rule of the Lord of Misrule. There is no mention in the text of the play of Twelfth Night celebrations. It is also possible that the play was first performed on January 6, as the court regularly commissioned actors to perform over the Christmas season. The first known performance of the play was February 2, 1602, but it might well have been performed earlier. All in all, the title is a bit of a mystery.
