About the Show

In this all-female production, Folding Chair present a stripped-down version of the play, evoking an entire world with just seven actresses.

'As You Like It' is about what happens when everything you know changes, and you find yourself in the middle of the woods. It's part fairy tale, part romantic comedy, part philosophical discourse, and part farce. In this production, seven women play all the characters with a focus on Shakespeare's words, evoking an entire world in an empty space.

Ambitious, Delightful, Great acting, Great staging, Absorbing

See it if You like a new spin on a great classic.

Don't see it if you don't like Shakespeare.

Confusing, Great acting, Great singing

See it if You enjoy (very) modern Shakespeare adaptations with ad libbing, live music, and talented performers who break the fourth wall.

Don't see it if You prefer Shakespeare with minimal cuts in a more traditional style, or are uncomfortable with direct address (actors talking to you).
