Twelfth Night

For two hours and twenty minutes under the night sky, the Australian Shakespeare Company returns to one of its most cherished farcesTwelfth Night. Sir Toby Belch, the man credited with inventing partying; Sir Andrew Aguecheek, stripped of his wits and naturally foolish; Malvolio, a power-obsessed puritan who tumbles from high moral ground when pushed by Sir Toby; and Maria, the maid who outsmarts Malvolio and house-trains Sir Toby. Then there is Viola, the shipwrecked girl who cross-dresses as a boy to find work, Olivia, the grieving noblewoman who rejects one suitor only to fall for another in disguise, and Orsino, the lovesick Duke whose heart shifts when truth and identity clash. The Australian Shakespeare Company continues its widely praised tradition of Shakespeare Under the Starsa night of laughter, love and lyrical chaos for audiences of all ages.
