“Journeys end in lovers meeting,
Every wise man’s son doth know.”
Having lost her twin Sebastian in a terrible shipwreck, Viola is cast upon the strange shores of Illyria. Disguised as the boy Cesario, she is sent by Duke Orsino to woo the Countess Olivia, who instead falls for the messenger. Meanwhile, Olivia’s drunken uncle Sir Toby decides to play a trick on her steward Malvolio, and chaos, confusion and hilarity ensue when Sebastian turns up alive. A wise fool, mistaken identity, and ultimately, love, make for a classic, beloved comedy.
Since 1958, the Colorado Shakespeare Festival has enchanted audiences with world-class theatre on the University of Colorado Boulder campus. This summer, make Shakespeare under the stars your can’t-miss tradition as we return to the beautifully renovated historic Mary Rippon Outdoor Theatre—with complimentary seatbacks for your comfort.
