"Love is merely a madness."
Rosalind is banished from court and flees to the Forest of Arden, where she discovers Orlando and a world of passion and possibility in one of Shakespeare’s most cherished romantic comedies. When she disguises herself as a man, enchantment abounds and blossoms into an exploration of the beauty and complexities of young love. Featuring full-company songs composed by Obie Award-winner Heather Christian and choreography by Alexandra Beller (Folger's Sense & Sensibility).
