Twelfth Night

BY WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE
DIRECTED BY YURY URNOV

June 6–25, 2023

Tickets

Disco balls. Mermaid tails. Surfboards on wheels.

The Wilma reimagines Shakespeare’s classic romantic comedy as the beach party of the summer! 

A conservative beach town gets upended by the arrival of shipwrecked twins Viola and Sebastian (both played by MK Tuomanen). Enjoy the hilarious hijinks of a drunken uncle, a power-hungry steward, and a social media-obsessed countess.

Silly slapstick leads to a “most wonderful” ending celebrating love and love and love and love and love.

Co-Artistic Director Yury Urnov’s interpretation embraces the queerness implicit in the 420-year-old original and further builds upon it to create a glittery, genderful celebration with a nightclub vibe.

RUN TIME

Approximately 2 hours and 30 minutes, including one 15-minute intermission.
