Synopsis:
"Merriment, madness, and the music of love abound in Twelfth Night, one of Shakespeare’s funniest and most poignant comedies, in an exciting new interpretation by Fenimore Art Museum’s Glimmer Globe Theatre. Welcome to Port Illyria, 1929. Jazz, revelry, and electric light fill the streets, while booze flows only in secretive, illicit taprooms. Viola, a young girl crossing the ocean in search of a new life, finds herself washed ashore in the harbor following a tragic accident aboard her steamship. She assumes a male disguise to ensure her safety in this strange new metropolis and quickly finds herself in the employ of the grand “Duke” himself, a nightclub owner named Orsino. As he sends her on a mission to deliver pleas of breathless love to a wealthy, grieving heiress named Olivia, Viola is forced to contend with Malvolio, the domineering overseer of her estate and rabidly dry teetotaler. But the bigger problem? Olivia swiftly falls in love with Viola instead…"
