Catch one of Shakespeare's most famous plays with this performance at London’s West End.
Duke Frederick has usurped and exiled his elder brother, Duke Senior. Duke Senior’s daughter Rosalind, however, continue to remain at the court since she is the closest friend of Duke Frederick’s only child, Celia. Orlando de Boys is kept in poverty by his elder brother Oliver, after the death of their father. He has fallen in love at first sight with Rosalind. Orlando is forced to flee his home when he hears about Oliver’s plot to have him killed. One day, Rosalind is also banished from the court by Duke Frederick when he loses his temper. She flees to the Forest of Arden along with Celia and the court fool, Touchstone. Rosalind disguises herself as a man named Ganymede, and Celia as a poor lady.
Soon they find themselves in the company of Duke Senior, who is living in the forest along with some supporters. Orlando also arrives at the forest and live with the Duke. Orlando, who is still enamoured by Rosalind, posts love poems on the trees. Rosalind comes across these poems and meets Orlando while in disguise. Will Rosalind reveal her true identity and feelings for Orlando, or will she play along and continue to trick everyone around her? Will Oliver and Duke Frederick have a chance to see the light and repent for their mistakes?
