Twelfth Night returns to the London Fringe scene with a Swivel Theatre Production. After the astounding success of Othello last year, Swivel are back and the twist is even bigger...
This production sets the country of Illyria in 1920s Morocco, giving a whole new resonance to the play. Viola washes ashore a country where a woman must dress as a man in order to work and to earn money. Set in the searing heat of North Africa, where men and women’s roles in society are very strictly defined, this comedy of errors will be presented in a whole new context. We will explore questions of
gender identity and sexual ambiguity in a rich and vibrant cultural setting.
Swivel’s unique interpretation will be a feast of live music, traditional dance and raucous laughter.
