shakespeare's as u like it - YALE SCHOOL OF DRAMA
In tyrannical Duke Fredrick’s court, you’re either ally or enemy, courtier or peasant, man or woman. These categories make common ground impossible to find. But once exiled to the Forest of Arden, the cross-dressing Rosalind leads city and country folk alike in rejecting the shallow binaries of the past. With music, drag, and dance, this new immersive adaptation of one of Shakespeare’s best loved comedies imagines a world where we can live and love as each of us likes it.
