Productions of The Cherry Orchard and An Ideal Husband to be shown at the Greenwich Playhouse, where they are currently hosting a production of Twelfth Night.
Sell a Door Theatre Company are proud to present Twelfth Night by William Shakespeare
The production is produced by David Hutchinson and directed by Bryn Holding and designed by David Woodhead and Nadia Tahari
Award winning Sell a Door Theatre Company unleash William Shakespeare’s tale of Love,
mischief, desertion and entanglement in this dynamic new production.
Shipwrecked on a stormy night in Illyria, the beautiful young Viola disguises herself as a man and manages to find employment as a page in the court of the lovesick Duke Orsino. But, just as Viola finds herself falling for the Duke, Olivia – whom Orsino has been constantly pursuing, finds herself falling for Viola. Meanwhile the chaos is only deepened when servant Maria and the
drunken Sir Toby Belch plot against Olivia’s servant, Malvolio.
Twelve actors bring this outrageous comedy to life as Shakespeare’s most indelible comedic

mistaken identities.
