New Hampshire Theatre Project Presents As You Like It May 13-22
"All the world's a stage, and all the men and women merely players..." says Jacques in The Bard's beloved comedy As You Like It. Director Genevieve Aichele expands on Shakespeare's world by placing his magical Forest of Arden on a distant planet "where no man has gone before." Loosely inspired by the original Star Trek television series, with original music by CJ Lewis, NHTP's As You Like It features hapless lovers escaping the confines of their spaceship to wander happily through Arden's fantastic landscape.
Brigid Abreux of Portsmouth takes on the formidable role of Rosalind, Shakespeare's most intrepid feminine protagonist, along with Senior Youth Repertory students from Portsmouth, Exeter, Kittery, York, Stratham, Durham, South Berwick, North Berwick, Newfields, Dover, Rye, Rollinsford and Eliot.
The professional production team includes Robin Fowler, assistant director/stage manager; Meghann Beauchamp, lighting & scenic designer; and Maura Suter, costume designer.
As You Like It runs May 13-22, 2011
