Events Description
Under the open sky of Toronto’s iconic High Park, Shakespeare’s beloved romantic comedy comes to life. When Viola is shipwrecked and disguises herself as a man, she sets off a whirlwind of mistaken identities, mischievous schemes, and tangled romances.
As disguises unravel and hearts collide, Twelfth Night delivers laughter, music, and the joyful chaos of love. Pack a picnic, gather your friends, and enjoy a summer night of theatre under the stars.
Celebrating 43 years of Dream in High Park, this outdoor theatre experience is Toronto’s favourite summer tradition. Grab your family, pack a picnic, and settle in for a magical evening of Shakespeare under the stars.
