About

"…look into happiness through another man's eyes!"
The ancient Forest of Arden serves as the backdrop for Shakespeare's most famous and quotable comedy. When Rosalind is banished from Duke Ferdinand's court, new identities are explored with hilarious consequences. Music, mayhem and madness thrill as we are shown that "All the world's a stage".
