Introduction
There seems little doubt that Shakespeare wrote Twelfth Night to be performed at Whitehall on Twelfth Night 1600-1. The play has all the customary devices for such an entertainment, when order was suspended and affairs given temporarily over to the Lord of Misrule. Following tradition the play includes disguise, mistaken identity, dangers that can never be accepted seriously however perilous, love-sickness, an interlude, the mocking of authority, tippling, song, clowning, combat.

Leslie Hotson goes through other names, giving each an identity appropriate to Whitehall on Twelfth Night, and above all sees in Malvoho a sadly ridiculous reflection of Sir William Knollys, Lord Knollys, the Queen's first cousin. Comptroller of her Household, a
