Shakespeare's Twelfth Night Continues Lipscomb University Theatre's 2012-13 Season, Now thru 4/21
William Shakespeare's Twelfth Night-directed by Denice Hicks, artistic director of Nashville Shakespeare Festival-is presented by David Lipscomb University's theatre department tonight, April 18-21.
In what is considered one of the greatest comedies ever written, Shakespeare delivers a night of deep, satisfying laughter, according to Hicks.
"All the key ingredients are here-romance, mistaken identities, women falling in love with men who turn out to be women-and it's made all the more tantalizing by the rich characters. From the exquisitely courageous Viola to the beautiful and bereaved Olivia to the insufferable Malvolio, everyone is dealing with a sort of crisis. Twelfth Night is both achingly funny and profoundly beautiful."
Hicks directs a cast made up of Lipscomb theater students in the production that runs tonight, April 18-21 at the Flatt Amphitheater on the university's Nashville campus. For details, call the box office at (615) 966-7075.
