This pastoral comedy follows the fortunes of Rosalind, daughter of an exiled father and niece to the cruel Duke Frederick. Banished from the court by her uncle, she travels to the forest of Arden to seek her father. Accompanied by her doting cousin Celia and Touchstone the clown, she creates a new identity in the green world dressed as a man. In the guise of Ganymede she encounters unexpected difficulties in love—being both the pursued and the pursuer! Rosalind forges friendships, discovers love, unites a cranky shepherdess and her adoring swain, recovers her father and unravels love triangles in fine Shakespearian form. Favorite characters such as Phebe, Silvius, and Jaques populate this exquisite and delightful play. By audition/ interview only.
