About
Experience Shakespeare's comedy As You Like It in Arundel Castle's Earl's Garden, which will be transformed into a captivating outdoor theatre. Set against the dramatic backdrop of the cathedral, this unique production, hosted by Illyria1, promises to be the highlight of the summer social calendar and is the perfect way to kick off the Arundel Festival of the Arts.
Join us as four pairs of soulmates meet in the Forest of Arden. One pair leaps straight into bed, while another is instantly struck by each other's beauty. The third torment each other. But the fourth enjoys a courtship so witty and playful that love itself is stretched to the limit.
1 Illyria performers support Equity's 'Professionally Made, Professionally Paid' campaign for fair pay and working conditions.
