Twelfth Night: Camp Illyria

Twelfth Night: Camp Illyria After washing up alone near a thespian summer camp, Viola Saroyan stumbles into Camp Illyria just as roll call begins. When a missing camper’s name is called, Viola dons a disguise and steps into the role of “Cesario,” finding temporary refuge in the high-emotion, high-commitment world of theatre camp—where pretending is a skill, Shakespeare is sacred, and everyone is just a little too intense about all of it. As Viola navigates camp life, her double identity ignites a spectacular chain reaction: Orsino writes increasingly dramatic love songs, Olivia falls for the mysterious Cesario, Maurice plots his inevitable theatrical domination, and pranks, rivalries, and misplaced devotion abound. Meanwhile, Viola’s twin brother Sebastian is searching for her, and his arrival threatens to completely derail Camp Illyria’s carefully curated chaos. A fast-paced comedy that gleefully shakes up Shakespeare, Twelfth Night: Camp Illyria celebrates theatre kids at their most earnest and unhinged—where emotions peak by lunchtime, rehearsal notes feel personal, and the only thing more dangerous than falling in love is missing your cue.
