Twelfth Night - Free Virtual Performance

60 Hour Shakespeare® rehearses and performs Shakespeare’s plays in 60 hours to raise funds for charity. Founded in 2018, we are inspired by the limited rehearsals that might have been available to actors in Shakespeare’s time.

60 Hour Shakespeare®

Twelfth Night Performance set in 1919 New York

TO WATCH THE LIVE STREAM: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fj5EbJOmRAEAt 7:30pm BST Sunday 2nd May, 60 Hour Shakespeare invites audiences across the globe to tune in live to a virtual production of William Shakespeare’s Twelfth Night. After a sudden end to the passage from Italy to America, Viola fears her brother, Sebastian, has drowned. She begins a new life disguised as Cesario, employed by the notorious and lovelorn Don Orsino. From her apartment in the Ansonia Hotel, southern belle, Olivia rails against his love suits in the company of Malvolia, the concierge, and Maria, her maid. Cesario is asked for a favour that will lead Viola to a bar full of strife and Feste, the bartender, moonlighting as a jazz singer, with prohibition and fate about to change everything.Productions with Heart Charitable giving is core to our mission and each performance donates all proceeds to a nominated cause. For Twelfth Night we are delighted to appoint the wonderful Fiorenti Foundation which enables disadvantaged children to access the world of the performing arts. Our recommended donation is £10, but we appreciate it has been a challenging year so everyone is welcome to attend regardless of contribution. &lt;3About the Fiorentini FoundationThe Fiorentini Foundation is the charitable arm of the Anna Fiorentini Theatre &amp; Film School. The charity was founded in 2011 with the sole intention of enabling less fortunate children to access the world of the performing arts. The Foundation works extensively with underprivileged children and those with long term health issues. Its mission is to break down the barrier of privilege and bring the arts to anyone with a creative flair regardless of background, race, creed or colour. The Foundation believes in the power of change and that encouraging less fortunate children to take an interest in a seemingly inaccessible pursuit can help them develop important life skills. The production will be broadcast live via Zoom to YouTube. Details will be sent prior to the performance to access the stream.
