William Shakespeare

RSC: As You Like It

RSC: Как вам это понравится

The Royal Shakespeare Company production of As You Like It is one of Shakepeare's best comedies. Forced into exile in the Forest of Arden, lovers Rosalind and Orlando become entangled in a beguiling game of love, lust, and mistaken identity. Lucy Phelps’s Rosalind is a genuinely modern heroine and some of Shakespeare’s most famous speeches suddenly sound new again. Kimberley Sykes’s Arden (designed with a subtle grace by Stephen Brimson Lewis) is soft, still and dappled in natural light. It’s a lovely place to escape to for a while.
