Description
All the world’s a stage in "As You Like It," a tale of exile, disguise, revenge, requited love, unrequited love, roleplay therapy, and illegal professional wrestling chokeholds. Will and James discuss one of Shakespeare’s most beloved heroines in the plucky Rosalind (or is it her handsome male alter ego Ganymede?), whether love is like a contagious virus, and the characters’ meanderings through the beautiful French forest of Arden. // CREDITS // Intro Music: Jon Sayles, "The Witches' Dance" (composed by anonymous); Outro Music: Jon Sayles, “Saltarello” (composed by anonymous); Illustrative Excerpts: “Tootsie,” dir. Sydney Pollack (1982), “As You Like It,” Oregon Shakespeare Festival, dir. Don Hunter (1950), “The Seven Ages of Man,” Morgan Freeman (Date Unknown)
