Archives - Twelfth Night
by William ShakespeareDirected by Eric ChorleySaturday 2nd – Saturday 9th February 1980 in the AuditoriumFirst performed before the Queen on 6 January, 1601, this delightful light-hearted comedy reflects the happy disorder of Elizabethan Twelfth Nights when the ‘Lord of Misrule’ encouraged young people to make fun of the pomposity of their elders; when the self-important were brought low and the humble, for a few hours, exalted. “Feste rules OK” as we might now put it. | Part of the Barn’s 1979/1980 season Presented by The Barn Theatre Club |
