JUMP TO AS YOU LIKE IT – IT’S A PEACH
Frog & Peach Theatre Company, New York’s critically acclaimed and revolutionary Shakespeare ensemble, will return to the live stage with their long-anticipated comedy blockbuster, As You Like It. The production begins previews September 30 with an official opening on Thursday, October 6, 2022. If you like your plays intimate, intelligent and riotously funny than this production of As You Like It, will more than live up to its name.
Join Rosalind & Celia as they flee into the Forest of Arden for romance, music, & adventures in cross-dressing in Shakespeare’s startlingly modern comedy. Meet the lovesick Orlando, femme fatale Phebe, the wickedly funny Touchstone, the dreamy Jaques, & the glamorous court in exile led by Queen Senior. Murder attempts, lion attacks, not even visits from the gods can stop the glorious fun of this glorious romp.
