January, 2015 Twelfth Night Screening

When a Sonoma Valley cinema chain was preventing the historic Cameo Cinema in St. Helena from showing the Globe on Screen series, NapaShakes arranged a test screening of Twelfth Night which promptly sold out with a waiting list. The attendees wrote nearly 100 messages demanding more Shakespeare on screen, which helped NapaShakes persuade the distributor to permit full-season Globe on Screen showings at the Cameo. Special thanks go to the Cameo’s Cathy Buck, for partnering with NapaShakes to make it happen!

A lively audience at St Helena's Cameo Cinema demands more Shakespeare!
