“NOW GO WE IN CONTENT, TO LIBERTY AND NOT TO BANISHMENT!”
Shakespeare’s beloved festive comedy follows the journey of Rosalind, daughter to the banished Duke Senior, and her cousin Celia, daughter to the usurping Duke Frederick, as they escape to the Forest of Arden to find Rosalind’s father. Dressed as a shepherd boy, Rosalind encounters Orlando, a young man who has escaped to the forest from his jealous brother Oliver. With an array of quirky characters, silly situations, and beautiful songs, this play explores the nature of love, poetry, family, and what we owe to ourselves and each other in a world of increasing division and strife.
See you at the park!
