Twelfth Night Idea

I just came up with an amazing idea for performing Twelfth Night: Viola and Sebastian are from modern Greece, sailing the Aegean when their ship is wrecked on the shores of (also modern) Turkey. Malvolio is an obnoxious strict Muslim; Toby Belch is Olivia's drunk uncle; Sir Andrew Agucheek is the playboy Toby's trying to get Olivia to marry; Feste is a wandering acetic Sufi.
Culture clashes, misunderstandings, and hilariousness result. Am I brilliant, or what?
