Edgewood University Presents a Wisconsin Twist on Twelfth Night

By William Shakespeare

Directed by Dr. Jeanne Leep

“If music be the food of love, play on!” With this festive, mischievous, and witty Shakespearean comedy, Twelfth Night, or What You Will, follows the adventures of the fabulous countess Olivia, her love-smitten suitors–including Duke Orsino–and the shipwrecked twins Viola and Sebastian. Viola, thinking her brother had drowned, disguises herself as a male page to work for the Duke, only to have Olivia fall in love with her new persona. The play complicates, then wonderfully untangles, all these relationships and more in our Wisconsin twist on this timeless tale.
