AS YOU LIKE IT is considered by many to be one of Shakespeare’s greatest comedies. Rosalind, the daughter of a banished duke falls in love with Orlando the disinherited son of one of the duke’s friends. When she is banished from the court by her usurping uncle, Duke Frederick , Rosalind switches genders and as Ganymede travels with her loyal cousin Celia and the jester Touchstone to the Forest of Arden, where her father and his friends live in exile. As friends are made observations on life and love follow (including love, aging, the natural world, and death). But will these any of them ever find true happiness? Will the Duke finally come to his senses and reunited his family as well as his kingdom? Shakespeare keeps you guessing until the end!
