Bedlam’s Twelfth Night

One play, two completely different ways, with the same five actors.

Bedlam returns to Central Square Theater after last season’s Saint Joan, specializing in classical revivals that are both radically innovative and winningly playful. This year they bring their successful Twelfth Night playing in rep with… itself.

Two different versions of the same play, both of them staged by the same director, Eric Tucker, and performed by the same five-person cast, whose members share between them all 12 parts!

What’s the difference between Twelfth Night and What You Will?
Twelfth Night, performed in street clothes, is a drunken debauch that strips away much of the laughter… radically innovative and winningly playful.” – The Wall Street Journal.

Subscribers may select either Twelfth Night or What You Will as one production in their subscription package. Both productions are available to be purchased through subscription benefit add-on tickets.

What’s the difference between Twelfth Night and What You Will?
What You Will, is a bright-young-things revel in which the costumes of the white-clad actors are spattered from time to time with what we come to understand is their own hearts’ blood.” – The Wall Street Journal

Proceeds will support The Nora Theatre Company’s Feminine Voice Series – a new program activating greater gender parity in theater by providing female artists opportunities to create, develop and showcase their work, deepening their connections to local audiences, and strengthening the field.

Don’t wait another minute to get a ticket to the funniest show in town right now. Jennifer Coolidge is a riot, unlike anyone else, and I couldn’t take my eyes off her. I haven’t had this much delicious fun at the theater in awhile.
This is a fun night out!

The Convert

Southern Africa, 1895: A young Shona girl escapes an arranged marriage by converting to Christianity, becoming a servant and student to an African Evangelical. As anti-European sentiments spread throughout the native population, she is forced to choose between her family’s traditions and her newfound faith. Danai Gurira’s (In the Continuum and TV’s The Walking Dead) rich play examines the cultural and religious clashes that shaped the post-colonial world, and are still being felt in Zimbabwe today.
