Let the team at Quantum Theatres take you to the magical world of Illyria for the tale of Twelfth Night at the National Trust for Scotland’s Inveresk Lodge Garden.
Go and enjoy this wonderfully merry play in the beautiful surroundings of Inveresk Lodge Gardens. Shipwrecked on the shores of Illyria and believing her brother to be dead, Viola disguises herself as a page boy to work for Orsino, the local Duke, who is awash with unrequited love for Lady Olivia. All manner of comic mix-ups over mistaken identities ensue.
Gideon Escott, Musical Director for Quantum Theatres said:-
“Our actors always have a wonderful time performing here at Inveresk and the audiences are always so enthusiastic. We’re delighted to be returning this summer with Twelfth Night and I’m sure everyone will have as good a time as in previous years.”
Quantum’s production of Twelfth Night takes place on Saturday 24 August from 19.00 to 21.30.

Tucked away behind stone walls in the charming village of Inveresk, this delightful hillside garden offers an oasis of calm and a year-round feast for the senses.
The garden is open all year and is split into two main areas to enjoy: the sloping lawns and borders at the top of the hill, and the wilder woodland and ponds below, both alive with birdsong and wildlife.
In the top half, you’ll find unusual plants brushing leaves with some more familiar friends growing among mixed beds and borders. You’ll also be drawn to the beautiful restored Edwardian conservatory which is home to an aviary.
