Unjustly deposed by his younger brother, the rightful duke retreats to the Forest of Arden and forms a utopia with his loyal followers while his daughter remains at court as a companion to her cousin. When forbidden romance enters their lives, the girls assume disguises and flee to the forest, where they encounter a magical world of friendly outlaws and wise fools. Both a lighthearted comedy and a deeper exploration of social and literary issues, this play features a memorable cast of characters and some of Shakespeare’s finest poetry.

    My Favorite

    Of all the plays I've read by Shakespeare, this is by far my absolute FAVORITE. There is so much wit packed into this play. And I absolutely love Rosalind's character. That must have been fun to watch during Shakespeare's time -- a man playing a woman playing a man playing a woman.
