Subject: Shakespeare's AS YOU LIKE IT - Arizona Repertory Theatre at UA
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
February 15, 2011
AS YOU LIKE IT – by William Shakespeare (run time 2 hours + 15 minute Intermission; Media Photo Call: Feb 22, 4:30pm UA Tornabene Theatre)
Presented by UA’s Arizona Repertory Theatre and directed by Brent Gibbs
This pastoral comedy features one of Shakespeare’s most inspiring characters, the heroine Rosalind. Disguised as a boy, Rosalind flees her repressive uncle’s court for the forest of Arden, where she discovers her true love, Orlando. As Orlando pines for his lost love, Rosalind, she befriends him in her guise as a boy and promises to cure his heartache. One of Shakespeare’s best-known comedies, As You Like It examines the cruelties and corruption of court life and gleefully pokes holes in one of humankind’s greatest artifices: the conventions of romantic love.
