by Sun and Moon Theatre

Suitable for all ages

Picnic Performance : Bring a rug or picnic chair, bring your picnic and your favourite tipple

Post-war 1950s Illyria, marked by loss and longing, is still finding its way back to joy when a shipwreck brings glorious chaos to its shores. In a world craving merriment, disguises are donned, deceptions are devised, celebration collides with propriety, and love is very much in the air.

Join Sun & Moon Theatre for Shakespeare's most joyful comedy, performed in the stunning grounds of Totnes Castle. Featuring a dynamic ensemble cast, live music, wit, laughter, mistaken identities, romance, cakes and ale, this vibrant open-air production is packed with heart and humour.

Performed using Shakespeare's original text and brought vividly to life by a versatile ensemble of actor-musicians, this fast-paced adaptation balances comedy with emotional depth. Set against the backdrop of a society rebuilding after loss, Twelfth Night becomes a celebration of resilience, connection and the restorative power of joy.

Bring a blanket, a picnic chair, your favourite nibbles and a bottle of something lovely, and settle in for a magical summer evening of music, laughter and theatrical mischief.

Running time: approximately 2 hours including interval.
