As You Like It

Ames, Iowa 50014 Get Directions
"All the world's a stage..." in 'As You Like It,' one of Shakespeare's greatest comedies. Join Aquila Theatre in the Forest of Arden where love comes in all shapes, sizes, and disguises. Set in a period of revolution in France when love conquered all, 'As You Like It' tells the story of power hungry men exiling their brothers, girls playing guys, and finding love in unexpected places. Frederick exiles his brother, Duke Senior so he can reign over a French Duchy. Simultaneously, Orlando, who has been forced from his own town by a bloodthirsty brother, finds himself in the Forest of Arden. Dressed as men, Rosalind and her best friend and cousin, Celia, run from Frederick's regime and seek shelter in the forest where they are fated to find the exiled Orlando and Duke Senior. Shakespeare's comic brilliance is wrapped in gender-confused, unrequited love.
