Description

A Twelfth Night retelling to satisfy your wildest Shakespearian fantasy! Servant Malvolio, a bright and zesty fool, is trying to manifest his rise to Dukedom, to no avail. Until a dark and stormy night brings ashore a wimpy "lad" adorned with a glorious moustache. What will come of this gender-bending mess? The comedy delivers desire, ambition, manliness and ego, holding a candle to the absurdist constraints of class and gender. Don’t wait for a heteronormative resolution to this campy mess!

The perfect antidote to anyone who thinks Shakespeare is boring. This is Twelfth Night, the way it should be told: silly, bawdy, intelligently scripted and wonderfully acted, that freshens up the Bard's story for a modern audience while remaining faithful (well, sorta) to the grand tradition of Shakespearian theatre. Perfect late night viewing.

Claire Wang and Magda Olech’s music impresses. Sołtykowska, Alba McGowan, Lucien Ngai and Tatiana Kacmarska all have energy and commitment ... it's fun, and its heart is definitely in the right place.
