Mariposa Arts Theatre, in partnership with the Stephen Leacock Museum, proudly presents BARD IN THE YARD: TWELFTH NIGHT. This summer, MAT "returns from intermission" with an exciting outdoor production of Shakespeare's musical comedy of mistaken identity on the grounds of the Stephen Leacock Museum.
After a lamentable year of no theatre, MAT is elated to be working with the Stephen Leacock Museum, out-doors, in the open-air, to kick off our 2021/2022 season. Shakespeare’s most perfect comedy, TWELFTH NIGHT, runs from August 25 to September 5. The gender-bending comic romp follows shipwrecked brother-sister twins who find themselves entangled in the upstairs/downstairs shenanigans of the best houses in their new country! Set in the early 1930s, the first years of the Stephen Leacock house, the production makes generous use of the restored home, splendid gardens, and lakeside environs to recreate the majesty and mystery of Shakespeare’s Illyria.
