It’s the 1960s, when all you need is love. Free spirits escape a
world gone wrong to get back to the land, a place that promises safe
harbor from the corrupt ways of the city—but no one is spared here
from the hazards of love. The irrepressible Rosalind takes refuge in
the forest. So, too, does her love Orlando, with much to learn from
the woman of his dreams, now disguised in boy’s garb. This
high-spirited, music-filled adaptation infuses Shakespeare’s comedy
with the hit songs of The Beatles—lifting the playwright’s
timeless verse in beautiful harmony with the immortal music of the
"Fab Four." First staged at Vancouver's Bard on the Beach Shakespeare
Festival, As You Like It is adapted and directed by Daryl Cloran,
Artistic Director of Canada’s acclaimed Citadel Theatre.
