'Twelfth Night' - Act 2 Scene 5 - dramatisation

Act 2 Scene 5 of 'Twelfth Night' by William Shakespeare, from when Malvolio says 'By my life, this is my lady's hand' to nearly the end of the scene when Malvolio talks about the stockings - 'even with the swiftness of putting on.' Malvolio finds the trick letter that Toby Belch has planted; he assumes it is for him from Olivia. Toby and Andrew watch, undiscovered, as he makes a fool of himself. The clip is a 1950s-style adaptation with music used to highlight comical moments.
