Named one of The New York Times’ Best Shows of 2017, this joyful and inventive musical adaptation of Shakespeare’s beloved comedy transforms the Forest of Arden into a vibrant folk-pop celebration of self-discovery and belonging. After being banished from court, Rosalind escapes into the wilderness disguised as a young man, where she encounters an unforgettable cast of exiles, fools, lovers, and dreamers. Featuring an infectious original score by Shaina Taub, AS YOU LIKE IT is a heartwarming story about finding your people, embracing who you are, and discovering that home can be found wherever community takes root.
