After a shipwreck separates Viola from her twin brother Sebastian, she disguises herself as the page Cesario to serve Duke Orsino. Chaos ensues when Viola falls for Orsino, who pines for Countess Olivia—who, in turn, falls for Cesario.

I Love You Because
I LOVE YOU BECAUSE is a charming, modern-day reimagining of PRIDE AND PREJUDICE, set against the backdrop of bustling New York City.

With humor, heart, and a touch of Regency sensibility in a contemporary world, I LOVE YOU BECAUSE celebrates the idea that true love isn’t about perfection, but about embracing each other’s flaws—because of, not in spite of, them.
