Description

The National Theatre of London continues its season with its acclaimed production of “Twelfth Night” showing in Sedona on Sunday, April 23 at 3 p.m. The Sedona International Film Festival hosts the big screen premiere at its Mary D. Fisher Theatre.

Tamsin Greig is Malvolia in a new twist on Shakespeare’s classic comedy of mistaken identity “Twelfth Night”.

A ship is wrecked on the rocks. Viola is washed ashore but her twin brother Sebastian is lost. Determined to survive on her own, she steps out to explore a new land. So begins a whirlwind of mistaken identity and unrequited love.

The nearby households of Olivia and Orsino are overrun with passion. Even Olivia's upright housekeeper Malvolia is swept up in the madness. Where music is the food of love, and nobody is quite what they seem, anything proves possible.

Simon Godwin directs this joyous new production with Tamsin Greig as a transformed Malvolia. The ensemble cast also includes Daniel Rigby, Tamara Lawrence, Doon Mackichan and Daniel Ezra.
