Show Notes
Folger Theatres As You Like It is a fresh take on Shakespeares classic, set in D.C. with a mostly Black cast. Rosalind and Orlando flee to the forest of Arden, while political intrigue unfolds. The production, directed by Timothy Douglas and envisioned by Karen Ann Daniels, features D.C. nods and original go-go beats. Standout performances include Tsilala Brocks Rosalind, Manu Kumasis Orlando, and Nikkole Salters Jaques. While the D.C. flavor fades as love stories take center stage, the vibrant ensemble and local resilience make it a playful romp worth seeing through April tenth.
