As You Like It - Alton Mill

This summer, as you gather with friends and family under a twilight sky, a troupe of performers visits your park, and as the sound of birds mingles with laughter and song, a story unfolds on the grass and through the trees..truly, "all the world's a stage".

Love, Laughter, Tricks, Song, Disguise, Transformation.
Humber River Shakespeare Co., now in its sixth season of outdoor summer touring, presents Shakespeare's beloved comedy, AS YOU LIKE IT.

Shakespeare's comedic romp follows Rosalind, the daughter of a banished duke, out of the court and into the Forest of Arden: an imaginary place where love and charity can find sanctuary from the cruel world of the court. Disguised as a boy, she seeks out her father and his friends. Here she meets Orlando again, and in the guise of a young man, counsels him in the art of love.

This talented troupe of travelling players will breathe new life into this all-time favourite among Shakespeare's comedies. From the cold and hostile court to the blossoming charity and forgiveness in the forest, AS YOU LIKE IT is about love - in all its forms. Brothers, lovers, friends and foes are tricked, tried and tested in this pastoral pastiche of life, love, wisdom and wit. A wrestling match, music, a banished duke, and a celebration of country life combine to move, delight and inspire in this classic comedy.

The production is directed by Artistic Director Kevin Hammond, (currently Assistant Directing MEASURE FOR MEASURE at the Stratford Festival).

Unique heritage buildings and picturesque parks continue to act as natural play spaces for the company, and several new venues and communities have been added to the tour, namely: Evergreen Brick Works, Riverdale Farm, and Fairy Lake Park. The tour will also extend up to the Blue Mountain Resort in Collingwood.
