The Bard Meets The Beatles in a Mashed-Up Musical
It’s the 1960s, and things are getting groovy in the Forest of Arden. Shakespeare’s classic comedy of love and mistaken identity is given new life in this high-spirited adaptation featuring the music of The Beatles. When Rosalind is banished from court, she disguises herself as a man and escapes to the forest. There, she meets the similarly-banished Orlando, who happens to be in love with her, but cannot see through her disguise. From there, things get increasingly tangled as the play explores love and gender roles, infused with the music of the “Fab Four.”
This production is made possible by the generous support of The Al Osten & Buddy Victor Legacy Fund.
By William Shakespeare
Adapted and directed by Daryl Cloran
Conceived by Daryl Cloran & Bard on the Beach Shakespeare Festival
