Cliff Cardinal's subversive retelling of Shakespeare's comedy of divisions seeks to please and unite - or does it? The title of William Shakespeare's As You Like It holds a double meaning that teasingly suggests this is a play to please all tastes. But is it possible? With his updating of the Bard's classic, cultural provocateur Cliff Cardinal seeks to find out. The show exults in dark humour, difficult subject matter, and raw emotion. Bear the words of The Bard in mind: 'Sweet are the uses of adversity, Which, like the toad, ugly and venomous, Wears yet a precious jewel in his head'.
