Shakespeare’s
TWELFTH NIGHT
November/December 2004
“If music be the food of love,
play on…”
The new season opens with this
scintillating and gender-bending romantic comedy of delusion, deception,
love and power.
Orsino loves Olivia
But Olivia loves Cesario
Only Cesario is really Viola
And Viola loves Orsino
A pair of twins is shipwrecked
off the coast of the imaginary Kingdom of Illyria. Shakespeare’s
wonderful tale unravels the ensuing confusions with music, romance
and lots of comedy.
The production is directed by
Jonathan Weightman (responsible for acclaimed productions of The
Importance of Being Earnest, The Cherry Orchard and The Dresser)
and the cast includes both well-known faces and some very talented
newcomers.
