By William Shakespeare
Directed by Tiffany M. Waters
Log in to a world where comedy and tragedy wear twin pajama pants. Where love, loss, and friendship must evolve in isolation and be filtered through your screen. Where duels are settled with game controllers, not swords, and Alexa plays “the food of love” on command. This is the new world, and in this world, you can be whoever you want (as long as you’re at home). This is I.L.L.Y.R.I.A.
Performances
January 9 at 7:30pm EST

Our Twelfth Night explores themes of love, loss, and reunion through isolation. How can we tell the story as it relates to our contemporary circumstances? Twelfth Night seemed a most fitting play to select for our interests because it begins as a tragedy and, through trials and tribulations, grows into a joyful comedy. Over the course of the play, these characters rediscover ways to find joy and happiness through their period of mourning.
