The Twelfth Night of can-can dancing and Olivia was starting to feel the burn

The promotional material for Twelfth Night is now available and as you can see from the poster our take on Shakespeare’s finest romcom will be set in Paris around the height of the Moulin Rouge.

It runs from the 24th to the 28th of February at the Guilhall, Derby.  Hope you can make it because it’s going to be a fab show.

The following information is from the back of the flyer:

Paris, 1900. Duke Orsino is in love with Olivia, who is in love with Viola, who has dressed as a man to win the love of Duke Orsino. Glorious confusion ensues as Shakespeare’s most delightful romantic comedy is re-imagined and transported to the colourful, liberal world of the Moulin Rouge.

Additionally every 10 tickets sold for pupils entitles one teacher to see Twelfth Night for free.
