It’s summer time in the forest, and absolutely everything is kicking off.
The
Duke is banished, and he’s on the run – but he’s found a bunch of deer,
a broken ukulele, the grumpiest man in the world and he’s gone native.
His
daughter is stuck in the city and she’s bored out of her mind – until
she gets terribly excited at a sweaty wrestling match, and immediately
gets banished to the forest with her best mate, a jester and an
irresistible urge to dress as a man.
Things don’t look good.
But the sun is out, someone’s carved love songs on all the trees, and hormones are running wild.
Welcome to the forest of Arden.
As You Like It.
