Shakespeare on Tour Presents As You Like It (SF Main Library)

Submitted by the Event Organizer

Join Rosalind, Orlando, Celia, and Touchstone as they escape to the forest of Arden in Shakespeare’s antic comedy focusing on love, loss and redemption. With a hilarious love triangle, mistaken identities and an exciting wrestling match, this production is sure to delight. Featuring one of Shakespeare’s strongest heroines, thought-provoking family dynamics and the famous “All the world’s a stage…” speech, As You Like It is a perfect introduction to Shakespeare’s works, as well as further the exploration with those already familiar.

This production, a one-hour version thoughtfully cut from Shakespeare’s original texts, features walk-on roles for audience volunteers to join in the fun and concludes with a short Q&A session with the cast.

The San Francisco Shakespeare Festival makes the words and themes of Shakespeare accessible to everyone, regardless of age, ethnicity, financial status or education level.
