When Rosalind is banished by her uncle, who has usurped her father's throne, she flees to the forest of Arden where her exiled father holds court.

There, dressed as a boy to avoid discovery, she encounters the man she loves - now a fellow exile - and resolves to remain in disguise to test his feelings for her.

A gloriously sunny comedy, "As You Like It" is an exuberant combination of concealed identities and verbal jousting, reconciliations and multiple weddings.
