Island Stage Left presents Shakespeare’s “As You Like It”

“All the world’s a stage and all the men and women merely players…”

From a cold and hostile court to the blossoming of spring in the forest of Arden, “As You Like It” is about love – in all its forms. Brothers, lovers, friends and foe are tricked, tried and tested in a pastoral pastiche of life, love, wisdom and wit. A celebration of country life combines to move, delight and inspire in this, a comedy for anyone who has ever contemplated packing it all in for a simpler life.

At 1062 Wold Road

Admission: free – Donations appreciated

Bring a blanket and dress warmly.
