"Love is merely a madness."
-As You Like It, III.2
A delightful confection, As You Like It is easily one of Shakespeare's most engaging comedies. Jettisoned from the court, the nascent daughter of the banished duke sheds the bonds of captivity and flees with her cousin and the court fool to the Forest of Arden. Also on the lam: the young hero Orlando, recently smitten by the banished young woman. Together, they and a host of other itinerants roam about this utopian society, free from the enmity at home, seeking romantic fulfillment.
