"Twelfth Night"- a FlagShakes Film

Flagstaff Shakespeare Festival presents…

Twelfth Night

By William Shakespeare

Digital release February 12

“If music be the food of love, play on.” So begins Shakespeare’s famous comedy Twelfth Night, a story about finding love, overcoming adversity, and yellow stockings! To kick off 2021, FlagShakes is releasing a filmed version of one of Shakespeare’s most beloved plays. Our cast includes 8 incredible actors from across the country, and renowned Shakespeare director Jim Warren, founding Artistic Director of the American Shakespeare Center, has joined the FlagShakes team as the film’s director.

Twelfth Night follows the story of Viola, played by FlagShakes alumna Cadence Lamb, who washes ashore on Illyria, where she disguises herself as a boy in order to serve the handsome Duke Orsino, played by Nick Marchetti. Comedy ensues as feelings are caught between all the wrong people, identities are mistaken, and our favorite characters must navigate the tumultuous island waters and their love lives.

The film will be available for digital streaming starting February 12 and for a drive-in showing on May 22. Visit https://flagshakes.org/twelfth-night/ for more information. Tickets available now!
