Bard at the Bar
Felicia's version of Shakespeare's Twelfth Night is going to be performed at a bar. Illyria, where the show takes place, is a coastal beach town that allows theatre artists and actors to have fun playing with early modern poetics amidst a modern and laid-back lens. Her goal for this show is to be immersive, experimental, and most of all, fun, for all involved!
This comedy touches on many themes, and Felicia is excited to explore many topics such as Gender inclusivity and equality. Further, the connection between love and music gives actors the opportunity to incorporate play into their songs and movement. This will be a one-of-a-kind Shakespeare experience that you're going to want to be a part of! Production sign-ups are open now, but stay tuned for auditions in December.
