An abridgement for performance by young people and amateur adults, "road tested" at the Folger Shakespeare Library's Student Shakespeare Festival.
Age range 12+
As You Like It: The 30-Minute Shakespeare presents seven captivating scenes from this merry play. Rosalind, disguised as a man (Ganymede), teaches the art of romantic wooing to Orlando.
The cutting includes Jaques' timeless 'Seven Ages of Man' speech, Touchstone the Fool's courtship of Audrey, and the hilarious love triangle between Silvius, Phebe, and Rosalind. The entire cast joins in the delightful song A Lover and His Lass to bring a rousing end to this charming comedy.
The edition includes helpful advice by Nick Newlin on how to put on a Shakespeare production in a high school class with novice actors, as well as tips for performing the specific play and recommendations for further resources.
