"As You Like It" is one of William Shakespeare's most beloved and oft-performed comedies. When young Orlando is cut out of his inheritance by his scheming older half-brother, he is forced to flee into the Forest of Arden to save his own life. There, he encounters not only the deposed Duke and his retinue, but a young swain named Ganymede (in actuality, his lady love Rosalind in disguise, who is herself a refugee from her evil uncle). Featuring some of Shakespeare's most famous speeches (including the "Seven Ages of Man" monologue), "As You Like It" is a frothy, hilarious and buoyant comedy, presented here in its original and unabridged format
