Join us on the South Front lawn, with the beautiful backdrop of Stowe House as we watch Illyria present Twelfth Night.
Following a shipwreck, Viola is washed-up in Illyria, where her only chance for survival is to make use of her quick wit and fine singing voice, disguising herself as a man and applying to work in the court of Duke Orsino.The lovesick Orsino sends “him” to lady Olivia to woo her on his behalf, but Viola'sefforts are so successful that Olivia falls for Viola rather than Orsino. MeanwhileOlivia’s carousing uncle Sir Toby Belch crosses swords with her steward Malvolio and devises a wicked plan to humiliate him. It could all end in tears-even if most of them are of laughter.
Illyria presents an evening of yearning romance, music and sheer joy-all performed on a stage inspired by those of the Elizabethan touring troupes.
