As You Like It

The Shakespearean play that contains the famous monologue that begins "All the world's a stage, and all the men and women merely players," As You Like It tells the story of Rosalind, the French daughter of an exiled duke who flees to the Forest of Arden. The plot is complicated when Rosalind falls in love with a young man named Orlando. The play has been adapted for film and TV and has found its way into contemporary culture.
