“All the world's a stage…” in As You Like It, one of Shakespeare's greatest comedies. Join Aquila Theatre in the Forest of Arden where love comes in all shapes, sizes and disguises. Set in a period of revolution in France when love conquered all, As You Like It tells the story of power hungry men exiling their brothers and finding love in unexpected places.

Shakespeare’s comic brilliance is wrapped in gender-confused, unrequited love. Aquila infuses As You Like It with its unique blend of fun and entertaining theatricality.The production is faithful to Shakespeare yet relevant and accessible to a modern audience.

Audience members are strongly recommended to book a seat for the pre-performance talks to gain full insight into these productions.

Previous Shakespearean comedies performed by Aquila have been described as,“Gleefully engaging... almost unbearable fun... directed with inspiration and a beautiful use of physical humor” (The New York Times) and “Beautifully spoken, dramatically revealing and crystalline in effect.”(The New Yorker)
