About Theatre in the Forest 2026: Twelfth Night!
Join us on the island of Illyria this summer for Shakespeare’s hilarious romance of mistaken identity! Shipwrecked twins Viola and Sebastian are separated, each assuming that the other is drowned. When Viola disguises herself as a boy to work for the Count Orsino, a hilarious comedy of mistaken identity and misunderstandings unfolds, full of romance, revenge and...yellow stockings! Suffolk’s biggest and best loved outdoor theatre event Theatre in the Forest returns to National Trust’s Sutton Hoo for another unforgettable summer of Shakespeare under the stars, in memory of Artistic Director Joanna Carrick. If you loved our HAMLET last summer, or if you’re completely new to the bard, you will love our TWELFTH NIGHT! With more spectacular puppetry, incredible music and laugh-out loud comedy, there’s something for all the family to enjoy!
