Set Sail for a Joy‑Filled, Jazz‑Infused Celebration of Shakespeare!
Step into the vibrant magic of Twelfth Night the Musical by Shaina Taub, coming to the ECU/Loessin Playhouse this February! This bold, contemporary adaptation brings Shakespeare’s beloved comedy to life with the soulful sounds of New Orleans jazz, dazzling costumes, and a whirlwind of romance, revelry, and mistaken identities.
Follow Viola as she washes ashore in a strange new land, disguises herself as a man, and finds herself caught in a hilarious and heartfelt love triangle—all set against the rich culture and lively spirit of the Big Easy. With its irresistible score, dynamic performances, and uplifting sense of community, this musical promises a theatrical experience bursting with joy, rhythm, and heart.
Don’t miss your chance to experience one of Shakespeare’s most delightful stories like never before. Tickets are on sale now—join us February 18–22 at McGinnis Theatre and immerse yourself in this unforgettable celebration of love, laughter, and music!

Join ECU faculty and student instructors for a dynamic lineup of classes—including contemporary, hip hop, jazz, ballet, tap, modern, improvisation, and more. Whether you’re a seasoned dancer or just discovering your spark, this exciting day is designed to challenge your technique, expand your artistry, and connect you with dancers from across the region.
Come spend the day doing what you love in the vibrant home of the ECU School of Theatre and Dance. We can’t wait to dance with you!
