Event Description

To mark the end of the twelve days of Christmas, join us for a reading of Twelfth Night! Anna will be facilitating a fun and interactive session looking at a scene or two from Shakespeare's greatest comedy. Participants will be invited to join the cast (though you are welcome to stay part of the audience!), discuss the scenes and take a moment to enjoy the beautiful words of our national poet. No experience necessary!

We're going to look at Act 2 Scene 4, where Orsino and Viola/Cesario are talking about love. 

If you go onto the Folger Library website they have the play free to download, if people want to read it on their screens: https://www.folger.edu/explore/shakespeares-works/download/#twelfth-night

  • Duration: 60 mins
  • Online Zoom event: Join from your computer, phone or tablet (no replay available)

Meet the Host, Anna Malzy

Anna Malzy has been around Shakespeare from an early age, having fallen in love with him when playing one of Titania’s fairies aged about 10. She is now an associate artist with Shakespeare Link, running online and schools workshops, as well as helping produce events. She is based in the south of France with her partner, baby, and their sausage dog Charlie, and works remotely as a teacher and translator.

More Information

What if I can’t make the event?

If a recording’s available for the event, you can still register for it and we will send you an email with a link to a recording shortly after it ends.

Will my camera be on and will I be visible to the other people?

Your camera and microphone does not need to be on for you to enjoy the event. The choice about whether to do this is completely yours.

How do I watch the live event?

Rest Less events are hosted on Zoom, a computer application that allows you to attend online events just by clicking a link. For detailed instructions, please go to our "FAQ" page, which you can find a link to in the nav bar at the top of the page.

How do I sign-up for and access the recording? (Recorded events only)

Book the event as normal (as if you are attending live). After the event ends you will automatically receive a post-event email with a link to the recording, as long as the event was recorded. You do not need to do anything else and there is no separate booking process for recordings only. Please note it can take up to 24 hours for Zoom to process recordings.
