This brilliantly talented and innovative young theatre company brings a fast paced, musically driven, zany production of Shakespeare’s As You Like It, full of comedy, original music with plenty of multi-rôles and many a quick costume change along the way.
The Fools take on Shakespeare’s story of rustic revelry in the Forest of Arden. Rosalind and Celia are on the run, Orlando is practising his passionate yet pathetic attempts at poetry, and a cohort of boisterous lords are rubbing shoulders with a company of country bumpkins. Taking on far too many characters between them, we present three exhausted actors trying to pull off this impossible feat. As Shakespeare so famously said: love is merely a madness, and so is this production. ★
