Twelfth Night

Author(s): William Shakespeare Company: Royal Shakespeare Company

Welcome in the festive season with this spellbinding adaptation of Shakespeare's masterpiece, following a five-star, sold-out run in Stratford-upon-Avon.

Director Prasanna Puwanarajah revives his "inspired and spellbinding" (The Stage) production, designed by James Cotterill, which sees Samuel West (Malvolio), Freema Agyeman (Olivia) and Michael Grady-Hall (Feste) reprising their critically acclaimed performances.

A woman survives a shipwreck and washes up on an unknown shore. Alone and bereaved of her twin brother, she embarks on a secret new life as a go-between for two people in the extremity of love and grief. Caught up in the ensuing love triangle, she experiences the chaos and humanity of unexpected love and discovers that in Illyria, everyone is hiding something.
