As You Like It

As You Like It follows its heroine Rosalind as she flees persecution in her uncle's court, accompanied by her cousin Celia to find safety and, eventually, love, in the Forest of Arden. In the forest, they encounter a variety of memorable characters, notably the melancholy traveller Jaques. Jaques provides a sharp contrast to the other characters in the play, always observing and disputing the hardships of life in the country.
