Twelfth Night is an ambiguously erotic comedy telling a twisted tale of mistaken identity, transformation and deception. With a man playing a girl disguised as a boy, illusion and reality are almost indistinguishable on Propeller’s island of Illyria. Dark and delightful, the play questions what happens when you fall in love with the wrong person, and the answer is both beautiful and bittersweet.
This edition of Twelfth Night Includes the Propeller edit of the text, accompanied by an introduction to the text and Propeller’s process, with articles on notable features specific to the production, including the use of music, design, and costume.
Propeller is an all-male Shakespeare company which mixes a rigorous approach to the text with a modern physical aesthetic. They look for as many ways as possible to inform the physical life of the production with the poetry of the text, giving as much control as possible to the actor in telling the story. Over the last fifteen years, Propeller has performed Shakespeare in over twenty two countries. In 2011 Propeller reached nearly one hundred thousand people worldwide.
