The Bradfordians Dramatic Society is thrilled to unveil the official poster for our Summer 2026 production of William Shakespeare’s Twelfth Night, performed at the beautiful The Tithe Barn from 8th–11th July.
Designed by renowned artist and designer Marc Bessent, the artwork captures the playful spirit, romance, mistaken identity, and delicious theatrical chaos at the heart of Shakespeare’s beloved comedy. With its striking imagery and bold hand-painted style, the poster perfectly reflects this year’s fresh and imaginative production, featuring a complete gender-role reversal, with all traditionally male roles played by women and all traditionally female roles played by men.
We are enormously grateful to Marc for creating such a vibrant and distinctive piece for the production, and we cannot wait to see the world of Illyria come alive inside the ancient beams of the Tithe Barn this summer.
Dates: 8th–11th July
Venue – Bradford on Avon Tithe Barn
Tickets available soon via the Bradfordians website
