SC Shakespeare Opens Twelfth Night

The South Carolina Shakespeare Company Presents

William Shakespeare’s

Twelfth Night

​

The South Carolina Shakespeare Company brings back crowd favorite, Twelfth Night for the spring!

​

Performances: May 9-11 and May 15-18, 2024 at 7:30 pm

Presented in Columbia's Woodrow Wilson's Family Home and Garden

Directed by Linda Khoury

 

"If music be the food of love, play on!"

​

An exuberant and joyous production!

 

There is no better way to spend a spring evening than to attend a play that is considered by many Shakespeare’s most well-beloved plays. Bursting romance, mischief, and mayhem, Twelfth Night remains fresh and relevant in today’s world.

It explores the divisions between class and gender and expresses an empathetic 

and humorous look into the realm of misguided love. 

 

The story in brief: Shipwrecked on the coast of Illyria, and fearing that her brother Sebastian has drowned, Viola must disguise herself as a man. She falls in love with the neighboring Duke Orsino, (who loves the Lady Olivia), who loves the disguised Viola!

 

Innovative and dynamic, the South Carolina Shakespeare Company gained a well-earned and critically successful reputation as one of the foremost producers of Shakespeare and the classics in South Carolina. Currently in its twenty-seventh season and based in Columbia, this seasoned, classically trained troupe still provides free performances of the Bard’s treasured works in an out-door setting just as they were originally seen. 

 

Join SC SHAKES for exuberant excitement and hilarious action in Twelfth Night!
