Twelfth Night Performed by The Duke's Theatre Company

Twelfth Night was first performed in 1602. Four hundred and twenty-one years on, The Duke’s Theatre Company are bringing this extraordinary play to the Wimpole Estate.

Audiences in 2023, like in 1602, could be forgiven for thinking that Twelfth Night was going to be the darkest of tragedies; what could be more nightmarish than to lose your twin sibling in a furious storm at sea and to think they'd died?

However, a romantic comedy unfolds with a madcap farce at its heart. The broadest of humour mixes with moments of unbearable pathos.

Picnicking is encouraged before and during the performance, and at the interval. There is no bar or refreshment facility at the venue.

There are two performances over the weekend; please click on the links below for further information:
