 AVENTURA, Fla. (January 2, 2020) –  The City of Aventura presents “As You Like It” by William Shakespeare on Friday, February 7 at 8 p.m. at the Aventura Arts & Cultural Center.

Banished from the only home she’s ever known, Rosalind escapes to the Forest of Arden with her cousin Celia and their fool, Touchstone. While disguised as a man, Rosalind meets fellow outcasts in the forest, including the dashing and lovesick Orlando. Determined to woo him, Rosalind persuades Orlando in her male disguise to win her heart, for as one character proclaims, “All the world’s a stage, and all the men and women merely players.”

With a ten-person ensemble, National Players melds classic language with contemporary staging of Shakespeare’s imaginative tale about city folk venturing into the woods. It’s a romantic comedy about girls, boys, losing oneself, and finding oneself again.
