Twelfth Night February 2, 2010

Love's a funny business in Shakespeare's 'Twelfth Night' - the madcap romantic comedy ringing in the new year at Trinity Rep. Brian McEleney will be reprising his role as the fastidious butler Malvolio - a role he's taken on three times before - in addition to his spot in the director's chair. Shipwrecked and separated from her twin brother, Viola must disguise herself as a man to survive. Just when she thinks things can't get any worse, she falls for her new boss, the Duke. Meanwhile, the Duke pines for Olivia, who has sworn off men - until she meet Viola's male alter-ego, "Cesario." This lover's knot gets more tangled when Viola's twin brother, Sebastian, arrives in Illyria and is mistaken for "Cesario."
