Read MoreCurtain Theatre Returns With a Dynamic Series of Free Performances of William Shakespeareās ‘As You Like It,’ Directed by Doyle Ott ā Celebrating 25 years in Old Mill Park!
As You Like It is a play about exile, the challenges and rewards of living outside the centers of power and knowledgeāand the self-knowledge and healing that emanate from Bohemia, symbolized here by the Forest of Arden in Shakespeareās home county.This production will lean into the dangers of exile, including the need to escape and to stay hidden, the tension between the need to trust strangers and not knowing whom to trust. As the broken exiles learn to heal, shepherds and farmers reclaim the dignity of their craft and a tyrant Duke is transformed, emerging like a prayer for the wisdom the people deserve in a ruler.In design, staging and music, we will pay homage to the Bohemian ideals that Northern Californiaāand particularly, Mill Valleyāhave represented for 125 years.Free! No tickets or reservations.
