Written around 1600 and set in two contrasting communities; city and forest. Rosalind and Celia have been banished from Court. In fear of their lives, they disguise themselves and seek sanctuary in the Forest of Arden. Amongst the magical and ancient boughs, Rosalind discovers her exiled father, uncovers various truths about herself and others...and falls helplessly in love. But in this earthly paradise nothing is quite what it seems: men do not always act like men, and women can be anything at all...Uplifting, awe-inspiring and immense fun, Shakespeare's wondrous comedy is a joyous celebration of the liberating power of love and the redeeming spirit of nature. Before the performance, the acting company will introduce the world of the play through challenging drama exercises and will lead an interactive exploration of the play, rehearsal process and staging. 2hrs 40mins inclu. 40 min workshop.| 9 May 00 to 11 May 00 | Dorfman Theatre (National Theatre) West End, Greater London Performance Details => Venue archive |
