As You Like It

As You Like It is probably Shakespeares most entrancing romantic comedy. Rosalind, the daughter of a displaced Duke, is banished from the court by her Fathers brother. Along with her cousin Celia, she escapes to the Forest of Arden and disguises herself as a man. She teases Orlando, a young man, who does not recognise her as the girl he loved at a distance. The pastoral world of the Forest is inhabited with a colourful array of folk, looking for love, and woven into this delightful tale, full of comedy and music.
