The Story

“We that are true lovers run into strange capers.”
In Arden forest, society’s rules of conformity are off and the players discover what love truly can be in this beloved comedy. Director, Jamie King, takes As You Like It forward to present-day in this joyous exploration of identity and love.

The Buzz:

“But if there was ever a Shakespeare show to convince doubters that modern Shakespeare can be fun and exciting for the whole family, SOTS’ version of As You Like It is it. It’s a show tailor-made for the most ridiculous of hijinks, with the clashing of cultures and elaborate love triangles borne from mistaken identities. King does brilliant work layering in as many laugh-out-loud moments as the script could allow, bolstered by a great cast from top to bottom.” - Matt Olsen, PodSask
“SOTS’s As You Like It never wastes an opportunity for comedy. Everything from the choreography in the opening scene to the well-timed modern interjections into Shakespeare’s quickfire banter, and even the intermission announcement, are perfectly crafted to get laughs.” - Julia Peterson, The Star Pheonix
