Free Shakespeare in the Park: Twelfth Night

Riverside Theatre returns to Lower City Park for its 5th performance of Free Shakespeare with Twelfth Night! Tickets are free; no reservation required. Synopsis: After losing her twin brother in a shipwreck, Viola washes onto the shores of Illyria: a idyllic dukedom full of revelry and music. Viola hatches a plan to survive on her own, disguising herself as a young gentleman in the court of Duke Orsino. Soon she is caught up in a storm of romance, antics, revenge, and mistaken identity. Shakespeare’s classic play, populated by a raucous band of Illyrians in a resort paradise, will make this a summer you’ll never forget. 

Join us 90 minutes before each performance for lawn games and concessions. PLUS 30 minutes before the performance we'll perform our green show, a hilarious 10-minute run down of the characters of Twelfth Night, featuring cast members from the show!
