In this assignment, you will be recapping (summarizing) all the important events of 12th Night so far. You will choose one of the two assignments below. In recapping the play, make sure to include each of the following story lines:
Viola arriving in Illyria, connecting with Duke Orsino, and her involvement with Olivia
The silly drama involving Maria, Sir Andrew, Sir Toby Belch, Malvolio, etc.
Sebastian's rescue by Antonio and arrival in Illyria
Choice 1: Skit Script
- Write a script for a "Previously On: Twelfth Night" (see example YouTube video for reference). Imagine that you are catching your audience up on what they've missed if they haven't been watching the play so far. How would you condense the most important plot points of the 3 story lines mentioned above into a skit?

Choice 2: Comic Strip
- Illustrate and color a condensed comic strip version of 12th Night so far. Again, make sure that your comic strip includes the most important plot points so far of the 3 story lines mentioned above. The comic strip should show effort, be attractive, and be colorful.

Rubrics for both assignments are attached. Make sure to review the rubrics before you turn in your final product. This is due at the end of class Friday.

Last day to turn in late is Thurs., 4/13.
