Disguises, deception, and declarations of love — Shakespeare’s Twelfth Night is one of his most beloved comedies, and it’s set to hit the stage under the KL Shakespeare Players’ Shakespeare Demystified series. Aiming to make the Bard’s comedy accessible, we'll see seven actors playing close to 15 roles, promising a lot of creativity, humour, and heart. Cast members Nurul Sofia, Tika Mu’tamir and Lim Soon Heng join us to share stories from behind the scenes, tell us what it’s really like performing for the Bards’s works, and reveal just how fun (and funny!) Shakespeare can be.
