Sinossi
Il vecchio Duca, spodestato dal prepotente fratello, con pochi cortigiani rimastigli fedeli ha trovato rifugio nella foresta di Arden. Qui si avventurano sulle sue tracce la bella figlia Rosalinda e l’inseparabile Celia, erede dell’usurpatore. L’ambizione, l’invidia e la cupidigia che avvelenano i rapporti di corte sono ormai alle spalle. Complice la magica atmosfera del bosco, Eros dispiega tutta la sua potenza: fra i protagonisti si intrecciano storie d’amore, gli scellerati si redimono e dopo svariate peripezie il legittimo duca tornerà in possesso dello scettro. Nel solco della tradizione arcadica cinquecentesca, Shakespeare allestisce una favola silvestre in cui si celebrano le virtù rasserenatrici della natura, eterna fonte di innocenza e felicità, anticipando un tema che sarà centrale nella Tempesta. Scritta con ogni probabilità nel 1599, Come vi piace è una pièce leggiadra che mantiene da cima a fondo l’ironica promessa del titolo: prendetela come vi pare, sembra dire l’autore, perché tutto il mondo è un palcoscenico, gli uomini e le donne non sono che attori e la Fortuna la fa sempre da padrona.

Yep, I’m going to spar with dead authors in this review. What else is new? As You Like It has a complex storyline involving two sets of brothers at odds with each other slapped together with a bit of politics and romance. The play has some of the most iconic lines in literature and has some laugh-out- Leggi tutto
As in "A Midsummer Night's Dream," "Hamlet" and "Antony and Cleopatra," Shakespeare in "As You Like It" is able to join disparate elements in unusual proportion into a unified whole of tone and mood which may be rationalized but never completely explained. What I love about this play is the way in w Leggi tutto

I was at Shakespeare’s Globe in London yesterday watching this play and it was fab! I then came home and read it (got to love the literary life!) The best thing about the performance was the fact that Orlando was played by a woman who was less that five feet tall and Rosalind was played by a man was Leggi tutto
Book Review 3 of 5 stars to As You Like It , a pastoral comedy and play written by William Shakespeare around 1599. Rosalind falls for Orlando for many reasons in Shakespeare’s play As You Like It. Since Orlando is such a small man compared to Charles the wrestler, when Orlando beats Charle
As you know, William Shakespeare could write any kind of play his dramatic company might need, and he wrote all sorts of plays exceptionally well. A light, frothy comedy? Check. A grim tragedy that plumbs the depths of the human capacity for suffering? Sure thing. A history play written to capitaliz Leggi tutto
Definitely one of favourites. Loved it.
