Shakespeare's Twelfth Night With Comedians

Back by popular demand, Fight in the Dog presents another one-night only performance of Twelfth Night, Shakespeare's best play.

It's the twelfth day of Christmas, and in Olivia's country house the festivities are still in full swing. The booze flows and the music jumps, in spite of clean-living Malvolio's attempts to quell the party. Viola is a lonely activist on the run from the authorities, searching for her brother.

Amongst the heaping binbags of a prolonged festive revelry, with seasoned p***head Toby belch at the helm, she finds the perfect place to hide. Shakespeare’s text has been abridged for a very 2016 take on this classic story of love, drink, mistaken identity and a prank taken way too far.

Directed by twice Edinburgh Comedy Award nominee Liam Williams and former artistic director of Boundless Theatre, Matt Bulmer, and featuring the finest comic talent to be found upon this sceptred-isle, this second one-time-only staging will be slightly bigger and slightly better than the last one.
