Approximate Running Time: 2 hours & 20 minutes Get ready to laugh yourself silly under the stars as the Australian Shakespeare Company brings back one of its most beloved comedies - Twelfth Night. Meet Sir Toby Belch - the man believed to have invented partying; Sir Andrew Aguecheek - dispossessed of any intelligence & naturally silly; Malvolio - a power-hungry puritan who falls from a great moral height when pushed by Sir Toby; and Maria - the housemaid who outwits Malvolio & house-trains Sir Toby. Then there's Viola, the shipwrecked girl who cross-dresses as a boy to find work, Olivia, the grieving noblewoman who rejects one suitor only to fall for another in disguise, and Orsino, the lovesick Duke whose heart changes course when truth & identity collide. The Australian Shakespeare Company continues its much-heralded tradition of Shakespeare Under the Stars - a night of laughter, love and lyrical mayhem for audiences of all ages. .
