Texas Shakespeare Festival: Twelfth Night

An afternoon performance of William Shakespeare’s Twelfth Night produced by the Texas Shakespeare Festival! One of Shakespeare\’s best-loved comedies, mixing joy with a thread of melancholy. The mission of the Texas Shakespeare Festival is to bring high-caliber theatrical experiences to the people of East Texas and beyond. We are motivated to serve our community of theatre patrons, artists, and students: theirs are the shoulders on which we stand as we support one another year after year. We are compelled by a desire to remain relevant in an ever-changing world by nurturing future audience members, sparking in them a lasting love of Shakespeare and the magic of live theatre that can be passed on for generations to come. The play centers on the twins Viola and Sebastian, who are separated in a shipwreck. Viola (disguised as a page named \’Cesario\’) falls in love with the Duke Orsino, who in turn is in love with Countess Olivia. Upon meeting Viola, Countess Olivia falls in love with her, thinking she is a man. Please note: This performance is primarily presented for student groups and has limited public seating available.
