Our friends at Virginia Plain have important news:
Audition Notice: Twelfth Night (heads or tails)
Tis but fortune, all is fortune. (II.v)
Twelve actors, 64 possibilities.
Twelve actors each learn two parts and toss a coin at the beginning of each performance to determine their character for the evening. It’s still Twelfth Night with all its shipwrecks, lovers, drunks, fools, puritans, yellow stockings and rings, but it’s also an extreme experiment riffing on the play’s themes of identity, love, sexuality and fate.

New Theatre, 542 King Street, Newtown
