"Love is merely a madness..."

This delightful adaptation of As You Like It is a hope-filled, musical celebration of love in its many forms. A 32-member cast of actors, musicians, and dancers bring this classic story to life in a way that celebrates the transformative power of nature and love.

Forced from their homes, Orlando, Duke Senior, his daughter Rosalind, and niece Celia escape to the Forest of Arden, a fantastical place of transformation, where all are welcomed and embraced. Lost amidst the trees, the refugees find community and acceptance under the stars. Featuring an original folk-pop score by Shaina Taub, As You Like It is an immersive dream-like tale of faithful friends, feuding families, and lovers in disguise.

AS YOU LIKE IT is presented by arrangement with Concord Theatricals. www.concordtheatricals.com
