Event description
Who knew that gender could be so confusing?
Shakespeare’s bittersweet comedy of mistaken identity, told in all it’s fabulously queer glory.
Viola finds herself stranded and alone in a strange place. For her own safety, she dresses as a man, and gets a job working for Orsino. Orsino is in love with Olivia, and Viola falls in love with Orsino, and he falls in love with her thinking she’s a man, then Olivia also falls in love with her thinking she’s a man. Then Viola’s twin brother Sebastian rocks up – who is loved by the pirate Antonio – and things get even messier…
But then the course of true love never did run smooth.
“As I am man,
My state is desperate for my master’s love;
As I am woman -- now alas the day! --
What thriftless sighs shall poor Olivia breathe!”
