Welcome to an uproarious world of drunkards and wine-drenched parties, depressive noblemen and dueling musicians, idiots and veteran jesters, religious zealots and erotic misunderstandings, all set to a live gypsy-rock score. Pig Iron uses its highly physical performance style to embrace one of Shakespeare's most wicked comedies, and exploits Shakespeare's wordplay with an immediacy that is alive, funny, and unpredictable.
Alternately absurd and heartfelt, Twelfth Night, or What You Will is replete with practical jokes, gender confusion, and mistaken identity: Girl washes up on beach, disguises herself as boy. Girl, disguised as boy, falls in love with Duke. Goes to woo lady on behalf of Duke. Lady falls in love with girl-disguised-as-boy. Longing ensues. As does the imbibing of enormous quantities of alcohol, plus outrageously melodramatic breakdowns to "the saddest music in the world."
