There is no escape mechanism in XPath. As string literals are delimited by
' or ", there isn't any mean to put one of the delimiters in the string
value.

What you need is something like this:
  concat("Join us for Shakespeare's", ' "Twelfth Night "',
         " at 7 o'clock")

This has nothing to do with libxslt, it's purely an XPath limitation.
