Make sure you get there early as the cast finish getting ready on the stage. Final costumes on and make up being done. That is entertaining too

I have seen this play many times in different formats since I studied it at O level (yes, I am that old). This was by far and away the best production I have seen. The all male casting gave a completely different overlay to the comic humour which took it from enjoyable to laugh out loud funny and so sharply clever.
Whilst Mark Rylance and Steven Fry were excellent star attractions, both giving wonderful performances, my definite star of the show was Paul Chahidi, playing Maria. For once, his portrayal gave Maria's character the true weight and impact she should have.
We loved the authentic music and the Jester's singing was beautiful, not just an afterthought. The 'Stage seats' were a blinder, though I'm not sure I would have wanted to be in the lime light, the way the players incorporated their audience into the play was magic.
Finally you can see just how accessible Shakespeare could always be - it made me think of an Alan Ayckbourn farce. Wish I'd had tickets for Richard III as well now.
Wonderful!

This has got to be one of the best Shakespeare productions i have ever seen. Absolutely wonderful and a performance that leaves you thinking and laughing to yourself for days afterwards. The comedy timing is perfection and Mark Ryance's Olivia is inspired. i loved the costumes, the music, the getting dressed on stage!! I would encourage anyone who wants to see the best of the best in the westend to go and see it.

We saw Twelfth night this week at the Apollo and it was just fantastic. Each and every member of the cast was outstanding, their comic timing was spot on and they really brought the play to life. The whole audience laughed and laughed, Excellent

I loved the production overall, but sitting in the Upper Circle meant I could not hear very distinctly some of the dialogue, in particular Sir Toby Belch.
I felt Mark Rylance was bit OTT at times as Olivia, in playing up to comedy effects, and playing for laughs in a part that I didn't think should lend itself so readily to comedy, at times he made her seem almost more like a Pantomime dame than a genuine character, which stripped away the dignity of the role - it is for the comic roles to provide a contrast and relief from her high seriousness.
Stephen Fry was just Stephen Fry doing Malvolio, I have seen better amateur performances, he could have been so much more affected, effete and self-obsessed.
The twins were absolutely fantastic, and the Count Orsino - brilliant!
Also I don't just get the thing about all male casts just because that's how they did it in the 16th/17th centuries, Shakespeare's conception of those women roles was as fully-rounded female characters not as men playing women.

Haven't seen Shakespeare for ages. This was a great production with some super actors that really brought the characters and play to life. Really enjoyed it. Would recommend even if you are not an expert Shakespearean.

A fantastic performance all round. The acting was superb, the costumes and set brilliant. So much effort had gone into making it feel like a night at the Globe. This was the first preview at the Apollo and but for the dripping candles it went very smoothly. I couldn't recommend it highly enough. Productions like this make Shakespeare accessible to everyone.

Ok it had it's good points. Chiefly the end. The set was very good, but I failed to see the significance of most of it. Fair play to the twins holdin their breath and coming out of the water all wet, but unfortunately that was the high spot and unless you wish to see Malvolios arse I'd say stay home because to say that was the best bit would be a cheek (snigger) some of the acting was actually quite hammy and yet some that you just couldn't recognise as being Shakespeare's lines. Such a shame!

Have never seen this play before so not sure what to expect. It was an amazing production, brought up to date without losing any of the Shakesperian magic. The cast was fantastic.
