Twelfth Night
-by William Shakespeare
Directed by Ernie González, Jr.
July 27 – August 13
Performed outdoors and under the stars at Stan Hywet Hall & Gardens
Lady Viola is shipwrecked on the beaches of Ilyria. To protect herself in an unknown land, she pretends to be a boy and takes on a page’s role to Count Orsino. Problem is: she falls madly in love with him. The other problem: Orsino desperately loves Lady Olivia. More problems: Olivia falls in love with boy-Viola (a.k.a. Cesario). Add in some drunken uncles, fools, fops, and pirates, and you’ve got one of Shakespeare’s most perfect comedies.
