The Problem Plays: Twelfth Night with Kai Tawil-Morsink and Emily Sucher

Twelfth Night isn't technically a problem play, but it is a melancholic comedy... and we think that's close enough.This week we untangle the more challenging aspects of producing Twelfth Night with new friends of the podcast Emily Sucher and Kai Tawil-Morsink!Emily Sucher (they/she) is a multidisciplinary theatre artist and educator. A Helen Hayes Award nominated intimacy director, they have had 30+ intimacy choreography and consultation credits in the regional DMV theatre scene, as well as several short films and extensive training from several programs. Also a performer, they are equally passionate about acting and their dream Shakespeare role would be a dual track of Cordelia and the Fool in “King Lear.”Follow Emily and their Saint Bernard nephew, Nemo on social media:Instagram: @emalaia & @st._nemo_bearKai Tawil-Morsink (he/him) likes Shakespeare a lot.
