All the world’s a stage in this romantic comedy favorite of the Bard’s with its story of thwarted lovers, disguise, and happy restitution. Rosalind, daughter of a banished Duke, flees the court of her uncle to save her own life. With her cousin Celia, she disguises herself as a man and they find refuge in the enchanting Forest of Arden. Rosalind encounters the young Orlando and they both promptly fall in love. Through merry misunderstandings, pleasing poetry and hilarious happenstance, As You Like It shows us the forces of true love and justice can make a out-of-kilter world right again—and done so by a woman!
