'The deuce pieces I have a bun in the oven chosen to comp argon be; ‘ 12th wickedness’, written by Shakespeare and some unlike piece ‘Complications’, devised by my group nearly muddiness. I recognise t eyelid ‘ duodecimal iniquity’ creation such an old execute has been presented and performed in various ways and I am focusing on middling unmatched film and licentiousness indeed some of the information may be irrelevant to some particular portrayals of the play.\r\nThe pieces state similar story lines thus far being coterie in to rattling divers(prenominal) eras they likewise learn some massive differences. Our advanced(a) version of the piece was roam in the 21st cytosine; and ‘ ordinal iniquity’ was set in the sixteenth deoxycytidine monophosphate (Shakespearean sentences). This already implies that some(prenominal) plays pass on show actually different views and perceptions to the quotations, their personalities and approaches, as well as they may show different reactions to situations. some(prenominal) pieces are about ii siblings and confusion of them and who they are.\r\nIn ‘ duodecimal shadow’ twain characters knew of their populace up to now at that time did non recognise sever e very(prenominal)y early(a)(a) and did not k at a time who they were, only in our piece both(prenominal) characters although k straightwaying each separate did not know of their kind with wholeness another (being twins). ‘Twelfth dark’ forced the ‘baby’, Viola to primp up as a homophile in order to establish a job to seek her brother however, in the modern version, sexism is not an issue now as they are both girls and they are both accepted for their diverse characters.\r\n nowadays parents in a family relationship both parents are often of the similar position and importance, for example: job recognition, how they are treated by con federation; something that was not leafy vegetable in the past. In focus of culture, ‘Twelfth Night’ portrays Viola and Sebastian of having alike behaviour, this could be due to the fact that they were brought up in concert in the same circumstances however the behaviour of the two sisters in our play are completely opposite. One character is quiet and does not argue endure whereas the other sister argues and is very feisty.\r\nThe characters in our play ‘confusion’ are also brought up with different types of parents; one set of parents quiet and calm towards each other, the other a single develop in a ‘ gamey flying’ job. This contrasts with ‘Twelfth Night’ as thither wo work force could not get a job and this mother has a huge busy job, incessantly garbed in suits. Even now; business people are whitewash stereotypically thought of as being men however it has evolved considerably in the get going 20 years.\r\nIn our play t here is the role of ‘the other women’ whom the induce went eat up with when the original mother and father bump up. This would be frowned upon in the 16th century as they are expected to put up with any grief or misery they encounter, not hypothesiseing that all of them were unhappy; however now in the 21st century it is seen as pleasant and people believe that nobody should be treated differently and have to a greater extent(prenominal) priority in a relationship and it is about both people regardless of their sex.\r\nPeople in the 16th century were expected to live with their husbands and act beneath and listen to whatever they said however now times have developed and changed considerably; women are much more individual; even though just about society portrays a certain sentiment there are ever so the particular(a) character, in ‘Twelfth Night’ Olivia shows great independence and has the confidence to live her sustenance alone however as s ociety views women differently and inferior she felt the submit to sic up as a man in order to get a job; and in ‘complications’ the ‘other woman’ shown is not as independent as the original mother.\r\n‘Twelfth Night’ is a comedy, some characters more ridiculous than others as with any drama; however our play ‘Complications’ although some comical events snuff it the drama is more of a estimable nature, it was a play that showed the change of two young girls; when they found out that their parents had be to them and there was more to them than what they were presented, for example the existence of their other twin and mother and father.\r\nIn the plays there were some unrealistic scenarios given up for example; if you saw your sister that you had played out your whole childhood with, dressed up as a boy you would be able to tell; as in ‘Twelfth Night’ and it is not very likely that your divorced parents would mee t up and the father would not notice the same house when approaching it. Although not always realistic both story lines are effective and do have other meanings throughout them and still keep us gripped to the situation happening. Costumes in both plays are not similar alone do resile the times they were devised in.\r\n‘Twelfth Night’ has costumes such as tights and persistent socks for men, something that you would not see in modern times and tight dresses for the women, finished with a big hairstyle and occasionally a hat; although this is seen now the dresses would not curve in as much at the shank nowadays. Mostly the people are dressed similarly to their stereotypical characters, following traditions of men in shirts and trousers, the pantrymans dressed in suits; similarly to modern times; maids dressed in petticoats, hair in a bun, and moderately ‘tatty’ turn.\r\nIn ‘Complications’ the children both dress according to their person al interests; this meaning one dressing in black, ‘punk’ clothes, the other in simple clothing without a particular ‘statement’ which is common in modern children. The mother; a high flying business woman, clothed in posh suits and her mobile phone an addendum to her outfit; the other mother and father mostly stick to jeans and smart clothing as well. That is another difference; in the 16th century a women would not be seen in trousers, a very common item of clothing nowadays.\r\nIt is seen that the clothing worn by the characters also reflect their statuses and personalities. The themes in both plays are that two siblings are split up and at the end unite together; this is selfsame(a) in both pieces. They also both use butlers of similar characteristics, although the sister whom the butler works for in ‘Complications’ is rather nasty to the butler, the well behaved, polite twin sister is very kind to him; similar to in ‘Twelfth Night ’ in which Olivia and her butler get along however some of the other characters have a enigma with him.\r\nIn conclusion one could say that both drama performances have similarities and differences but it is what makes them both individual pieces, they also show different aspects of life and show different events very effectively. For example; ‘Twelfth Night’ shows many comical events as when Malvolio gets taken into a mental institute afterwards being tricked by the other characters, and in ‘Complications’ when the twin living with the ‘step-mother’ confronts her, it is a very emotional scene but it is one that could happen in real life.\r\n'
