Arts in the Parks: Rosalynde (or, As You Like It)

When circumstances force Rosalynde from her home in the city, she flees into the unknown wilds of the forest where she sets out on a journey of identity, self-discovery and love, learning that to carve your own path, sometimes you need to break the rules.

Looking back 100 years to Canada in 1918, Rosalynde (or, As You Like It) explores the right to be who we are, to love whom we choose, and to do what we please in a time when women were fighting for equality, the government was regulating recreational substances, and conflict was shaping our country.

Not at all like today, eh? At Driftwood Theatre, no two performances are quite the same as performances interact with the environment around them: epic theatre under the stars, in Ontario’s great gathering spaces.
