Twelfth Night

The Castle Players were delighted to welcome three sixth form students from Barnard Castle School into the cast of Twelfth Night.  Sophia Wilmot-Josife, Lewis Fieldhouse and Nathan Toth each took a main speaking part, joining the action as it developed around an imposing castle set.  The story was played out to a soundtrack by Queen, a stark audio contrast to the traditional staging and costume.

Read a synopsis of the play

 

"A SHAKESPEAREAN comedy that has been played out many times, but few could be as entertaining as this."

The Northern Echo

"Edward Cole was a very lively Sir Andrew Aguecheek, and a perfect foil for Graham Fewell as the debauched Sir Toby Belch. Feste was played with flair by Gordon Duffy-McGhie, and Andrew Stainthorpe was brilliant as a vivacious Malvolio."
