AS YOU LIKE IT by William Shakespeare at Independent Shakespeare Fest! Fall in love this summer with our As You Like It, a screwball romantic comedy with songs inspired by 1930’s crooner, Al Bowlly. Irrepressible cousins, Rosalind and Celia, fall afoul of the Duke, and make their escape into the Forest of Arden. There, they discover a world of vivid characters and romantic possibilities. When class and gender boundaries shatter, they discover both themselves and a beguiling truth: transformation is always possible. In the hour before the performance, you’re invited to explore the world of the play during an immersive prologue. There, you will have the opportunity to interact with characters as well as learn a few secrets. Once the play begins, you’ll get cozy in your spot and enjoy one of Shakespeare’s most heartfelt and witty comedies. Be advised: although audience members of all ages are welcome and encouraged to come, Shakespeare’s plays all deal with the adult themes that invariably arise in human relationships, and include allusions to both sexuality and violence. This production contains no nudity nor graphic violence. It does however include shameless flirting, double entendres, and may make you want to get up and dance. July 10 - September 1 Wednesday - Sunday @ 7:00 pm
