Synopsis
Twelfth Night is a classic that runs the gamut of entertainment archetypes: comedy, drama, action, etc. There are many versions of the play available in bookstores and online if you are unfamiliar with it. This production specifically will be a raw, modern staging in a world that blends our world with that of Shakespeare’s. The cast has been honed down to nine characters to keep it intimate and ensemble-based.
