Twelfth Night in London

Shakespeare is always special. Performed outdoors in beautiful Regents Park, in the open air in great company, it’s even more special. Welcome to the Bard’s well-loved comedy play exploring the marriage between happiness, nostalgia, and intense partying.

Why you should book Twelfth Night tickets

  • Love Shakespeare's beloved comedy? It's back on the stage in the most idyllic setting in one of London's royal parks.
  • The plot of this show remains as fresh, innovative, and entertaining as ever - even if you are seeing Twelfth Night for the first time you'll have a lasting experience.
  • Twelfth Night contains timeless themes of love and mistaken identity, amped up with the support of a unique comedy style.

A whirlwind of a plot

What's the plot? A ship is wrecked on the jagged rocks. The terrified Viola is washed ashore, in the process losing her beloved twin brother Sebastian to the crashing, violent seas. Heartbroken but determined to survive alone, she explores the new land she finds herself in.

So far so simple... but a confusing whirlwind of mistaken identity and unrequited love soon takes place, and the homes of Olivia and Orsino are both overcome with mad passion. It's so powerful that even Olivia's serious, sensible housekeeper Malvolia is swept up in it. As it turns out, in a setting where music is the food of love and you really can't rely on your first impressions of people, anything can happen... including new and unexpected news about Viola's shipwrecked twin.

A great creative team

This time around the bard’s classic is Directed by Owen Horsley (Henry VI: Rebellion, Wars of the Roses, Royal Shakespeare Company). Basia Binkowska is the set designer, Ryan Dawson-Laight takes the role of costume designer, and Daniel Hay-Gordon is the choreographer and movement director, Lotte Hines is the casting director, Cory Hippolyte is associate director. Sam Kenyon is the composer and musical supervisor. Aideen Malone is the lighting designer and Max Pappenheim is the sound designer.

Experience the magic of Shakespeare's timeless comedy amidst the enchanting backdrop of Regent's Park Open Air Theatre this summer. Twelfth Night promises laughter and romance for an unforgettable evening.

Fantastic

My Mum and I thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. What a clever interpretation of such a classic. Some fantastically funny details that made it feel modern and as relevant today as it was in Shakespeare's time.

Twelfth Night

This was a great chance to see Twelfth Night performed using practices from Shakespeare's time, but also with a very fresh and original interpretation. It's a top talent cast, and the funniest Twelfth Night I've ever seen.

I hated Twelfth Night at school, but have come to value the different productions I have since seen. This one, with a stage seat, was one I loved above others in terms of the immediacy of the acting, the joy of the play and the whole experience.

This production should encourage children to enjoy Shakespeare and understand the language, and it shows how an all male cast can act without 'camping' it up. Marvellous acting and costumes and very economical but effective set.

Sensational So Worth Investing in Good Seats!

This is a fantastic production. My only criticism is that some of the actors - the fool for eg - spoke so quickly it was difficult to hear up in the balcony. But despite the discomfort, poor view and difficulty hearing, it is absolutely worth 5 stars. In hindsight, I wish we had gone for more expensive seats though thought balcony enough at £41 with booking fee. Mark Rylance is extraordinary and Stephen Fry very good. Some magical moments which make me smile thinking about them as I write. I now want to go to their Richard lll,

Excellent rendition of Twelfth Night

This all male Twelfth Night was amazing - Mark Rylance as Olivia was perfect. And with Stephen Fry as Malvolio, this show couldn't have got any better.

The Sublime and the Ridiculous

You will not have seen a more beautifully stage or acted play this year. Mark Rylance is confirmed as the finest Theatre actor we have. I was fortunate enough to sit in one of the stage seats, which had the effect of bringing us into the warm and generous heart of one of Shakespeare's greatest comedies. If I were to list all the wonderful actors ,this would be a very long review indeed. I would mention, Paul Chahidi as Maria, Stephen Fry, probably the best Malvolio sine Richard Briars. And at the heart and soul of the play (this according ) to Peter Hall is Feste, Peter Hamilton Dyer enchanted and moved us in this role. See it, if you can, it's the best Christmas present you could give or receive.

Best experience ever!!

It's not all about Steven Fry, good as he is. We had stage seats so we could see the subtle facial expressions and it all felt really authentic. The acting was tremendous, particularly the jester who sang really well too!! It was just really funny, I could go on and on..

Do a bit of homework before the show

If its sometime since you read the play or maybe you never have, read a synopsis of the story, so you know what's going on. Then sit back and enjoy the very best that theatre can offer.
