Westport Country Playhouse has released a video, taped in rehearsal, offering a look at the upcoming comic masterpiece, "Twelfth Night, or What You Will," by William Shakespeare, on stage October 11 through November 5. The video provides insight on the comedy from Mark Lamos, Westport Country Playhouse artistic director and director of the production, as well as from actors.
Laughter and melancholy, gorgeous poetry and song, and endlessly delightful romantic entanglements abound in this fresh and inventive production of a timeless classic. In a story of illusion, deception, disguise, madness and the extraordinary things one will do for love, a young lady, who is cast ashore after a violent shipwreck, suddenly finds herself thrust into an adventure of cross-dressing, sexual confusion, mistaken identity and the flowering of romance.
