William Shakespeare’s As You Like It. The Summer of 2011 is your chance to see Shakespeare’s pastoral comic masterpiece. Directed by Trinity Shakespeare Artistic Director T. J.

Trinity Shakespeare Festival - As You Like It

In this play we meet Shakespeare’s most delightful heroine, Rosalind, escaping her evil uncle into the enchanted forest of Arden by disguising herself as a boy. We are introduced to Orlando, a young man cheated out of his inheritance by his brother, and forced to flee to the very same enchanted forest of Arden. With the help of Rosalind’s clown of a servant, Touchstone, and accompanied by the musings of a lost philosopher, Jaques (“All the world’s a stage.”), Orlando and Rosalind meet and a battle of wits leads to a battle of the heart ending in a surrender to true love. As You Like It is Shakespeare at his comic and romantic height.
