The Globe Theatre will be putting on a production of Shakespeare's much-loved comedy, "Twelfth Night".

It tells the story of Viola, who disguises herself as her believed-to-be-dead brother to get a job with the Duke Orsino. But when he sends him/her off to woo his beloved, Olivia instead falls for his/her charms. A chaos of mistaken identities ensues, with the brother turning up in the nick of time to set right all the wrongs. Very confusing, but also very funny.

The Globe Theatre is a perfect reconstruction of an Elizabethan playhouse that originally stood in Shakespeare’s day, and features wooden seats in balconies, and a stage that is open to the weather.
