The Fool- Feste represents the contradictory
nature of the play. Though he is the fool, he has an incredible wit, and shows that things are
not always as they seem. Twelfth
Night- The name of the play is a holiday in which things are said to be turned upside down. Because
of the nature of the plot of the play, this seems fitting.
Music- The opening line in the play shows that music is an important metaphor for love. Feste,
at different intervals during the play, sings songs that help to illustrate for the audience the feelings
of the characters at that juncture.
