- **Event Description**: “All the world’s a stage and all the men and women merely players” — Act II, Scene VII.

The noble Orlando wins a court wrestling match—and Rosalind’s heart—but before their love can take root, she’s banished from court. Quick-witted Rosalind disguises herself as a young man and flees into the woods with her loyal cousin Celia and the ever-foolish (and ever-wise) Touchstone.

When Rosalind’s new identity brings her face-to-face with the man she adores, she decides to test his devotion, schooling him in the art of romance while cleverly hiding her true self. 

In the Forest of Arden, among exiled nobles, shepherds, and dreamers, they discover that sometimes you have to lose yourself to find yourself.

Join us this summer at the Blackfriars Playhouse in Staunton, Virginia, as self-discovery and love run wild in Shakespeare’s As You Like It, where poems hang from trees, hearts awaken, and everyone turns over a new leaf.
