As You Like It: Love grows on trees! If a nasty uncle banishes you from court, it’s wise to take your favorite cousin and a clown along for the ride. When Rosalind and her entourage seek refuge in the Forest of Arden, they encounter an unlikely lot of woodland denizens—including Orlando, the man Rosalind loves. Disguised as a boy, Rosalind teaches Orlando how to woo her! Celebrating one of Shakespeare’s most glorious feminine creations, this joyful comedy is filled with identities at play and shrewd observations about human nature.
