Twelfth Night or What You Will
“If music be the food of love, play on…”

Shakespeare in the Squares celebrates their sixth anniversary with a new production of Twelfth Night, Shakespeare’s glorious romantic comedy of mistaken identity, set in the 1920s. The production will be directed by Sioned Jones.

Dame Judi Dench, CH, DBE, FRSA, Patron of Shakespeare in the Squares says, “I made my Broadway debut as Viola, so Twelfth Night has always been a very special play for me. I can’t imagine a more perfect choice for Shakespeare in the Squares: music, mischief, missing twins and romance – all played out on balmy summer evenings in the heart of London’s enchanted gardens and squares. I much look forward to seeing their production, and know they ‘will strive to please you every day.”
