Find the best Play On! - The Black Joy Season play tickets at Bristol Old Vic, Bristol. This joyous retelling of Shakespeare's Twelfth Night vividly brings to life the 1940s New York jazz scene, set to a timeless, toe-tapping Duke Ellington soundtrack. In the Cotton Club, New York City, a young songwriter arrives ready to make her name - but disguising herself as a man will give her a better shot in a male-dominated music world. As she meets club owner The Duke and sensational singer Lady Liv, Vy is swept up in a syncopated symphony of melodies, mistaken identities and romance.
