50th Anniversary of Oak Park Festival Theatre

Twelfth Night

A Comedy of Love, Identity, and Unmistakable Mischief
Viola is shipwrecked in Illyria and, believing her twin brother Sebastian to be dead, disguises herself as a man named Cesario to serve Duke Orsino. Orsino pines for Countess Olivia, who’s sworn off love, but when Cesario delivers Orsino’s message of devotion, Olivia falls for the disguised Viola instead. Meanwhile, Viola herself falls for Orsino, creating a tangled love triangle.

Meanwhile, Olivia’s pompous steward, Malvolio, is led to believe that Olivia loves him, revealing he has been deeply in love with her for a long time. Chaos ensues as mistaken identities multiply - especially when Sebastian, alive and well, arrives in Illyria.

Join us this Summer for our 50th Anniversary Season of Twelfth Night, directed by Producing Artistic Director Peter Andersen, as romantic confusions unravel, truths are revealed, and comedy takes center stage in a celebration of love, identity, and the joy of Shakespeare.

Returning for our 50th Anniversary is OPFT Company Member Kevin Theis, as well as numerous designers from our 49th season, such as Costume Designer Taylor Pfenning, Scenic Designer Evan Frank, and Lighting Designer Devin Cameron.
