Question: Twelfth Night by William Shakespeare!.!.!?
I have an audition for Twelfth Night in about 2 weeks!. I'm trying to decide which part to audition for!.!. and I just read through the play!. Who is Maria, and can someone give me a character description of her!.Www@QuestionHome@Com


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
Twelfth Night

Maria - Olivia’s clever, daring young waiting-gentlewoman!. Maria is remarkably similar to her antagonist, Malvolio, who harbors aspirations of rising in the world through marriage!. But Maria succeeds where Malvolio fails—perhaps because she is a woman, but, more likely, because she is more in tune than Malvolio with the anarchic, topsy-turvy spirit that animates the play!.
