Nafe Katter Theatre
We bring you a"Twelfth Night" infused with the music and jollity of the Christmas season. Wrapped in carols and holly, Shakespeare’s finest comedy is a paean to the restorative power of love and the uproarious joy of the holidays. Viola, the shipwrecked heroine, lands on the shore of Illyria, and disguised as a page, Cesario, searches for her lost brother. Countess Olivia mourns the loss of her own brother. When the lovely Countess meets the handsome young page (Viola in disguise), desire banishes grief in this intoxicating comedy of mistaken identity and contagious laughter. Our "Twelfth Night" is a delightfully unique way to celebrate the holidays.

December 1-10, 2016
by Georges Feydeu, Adapted by Nicki Frei and Peter Hall
We bring you this hilariously overstuffed turkey to celebrate the holidays! The supreme master of farce, Georges Feydeau, displays all his comic genius as a man lusts after his friend’s wife, which triggers a riotous revenge plot and a dizzying spell of side-splitting complications. When this translation opened at the Globe Theatre in 1993, The Daily Express observed, “The witty, highly risqué translation sets the tone for an evening of frenzied Bacchanalian exuberance… [that is] enough to make you weep with laughter.” CRT Behind the Scenes: LE DINDON, or AN ABSOLUTE TURKEY](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/juqj48fo598/mqdefault.jpg)
