Twelfth Night
"If music be the food of love, play on;
Give me excess of it!"
-
Every evening (except Sunday) at 7.30pm
King's College Gardens
(entrance via Queen's Road only)
Wit, music, romance and revelry are the food of love at this comedic feast of lovers and fools. Viola and her twin brother are shipwrecked in the magical land of Illyria, each believing the other drowned. Disguised as a young man, and entering the service of the lovesick Duke Orsino, Viola woos the wistful lady Olivia for her new master and finds herself in a most unusual and hilarious love triangle. Merry deceptions and mistaken identities abound in this lilting comedy until true love finds its way.
A beautifully-paced, thoughtful and intelligent production, with plenty of action offsetting moments of real pathos and tragedy
