The search for true love takes Rosalind and Orlando on separate journeys into the enchanting Forest of Arden. As they flee from the constraints of court life, both find refuge and adventure in a world brimming with wit and humor. Disguised, Rosalind sets out on a journey of self-discovery and encounters colorful fools, witty rustics, and the handsome, lovesick Orlando. In this magical forest, friendships are forged, romances bloom, and identities are revealed.  Will Rosalind get her happily ever after? Follow heroine Rosalind through the comic twists and turns of Shakespeare’s whirlwind comedy AS YOU LIKE IT!
