The Twelfth Night Reunion

With Tom Littler's production of Twelfth Night in performance, on January 19, 2025 the Orange Tree Theatre in Richmond, London, UK held a special Shakespearean Under the Orange Tree fundraiser celebrating the play. For one afternoon only, host Gyles Brandreth and guests including Judi Dench, Stephen Fry, Anne Reid, Derek Jacobi et al. appeared in support of the OT's Primary Shakespeare, which introduces kids to Shakespeare via interactive workshops/performances. As legendary Shakespearean actors they look back on their performances in the play–Shakespeare's masterpiece of mistaken identity–accompanied by Stefan Bednarczyk while he was performing/composing as Feste in Twelfth Night. For 30 years, OT's Shakespeare in Schools projects have ignited a love for theatre & Shakespeare, reaching 10,000+ kids with timeless stories of magic, drama, and inspiration. Proceeds ensure kids across the borough of Richmond and beyond have access to creative education via workshops and live performance.
