Shakespeare in the Park | As You Like It
August 12, 2023 @ 6:30 pm - 9:30 pm
Join us for the 13th Annual Shakespeare in the Park!
The Evansville Shakespeare Players, Stage Two Productions and Willard Public Library present As You Like It
Shakespeare’s classic romantic comedy AS YOU LIKE IT is a confection–a dream-like tale of faithful friends, waring families, and lovers in disguise. Forced into exile, Duke Senior, his daughter Rosalind and niece Celia, find themselves in the Forest of Arden, a transformational, fantastical place, where all find a sense of community, acceptance, and maybe even love. Lighthearted and fun, AS YOU LIKE IT explores the spaces between gender identities, as well as the difference of court and rural life, and ultimately what makes love real rather than a fantasy.
