About this listen

As You Like It follows its heroine Rosalind as she flees persecution in her uncle's court, accompanied by her cousin Celia and Touchstone the court jester, to find safety and, eventually, love, in the Forest of Arden. Historically, critical response has varied, with some critics finding the work of lesser quality than other Shakespearean works and some finding the play a work of great merit. The play features one of Shakespeare's most famous and oft-quoted speeches, "All the world's a stage", and is the origin of the phrase "too much of a good thing". The play remains a favorite among audiences and has been adapted for radio, film, and musical theater.

The audio production of *As You Like It* performed by Robin Schild is a masterful rendering of Shakespeare’s pastoral comedy, brimming with wit, emotion, and vibrant characterizations.

Schild’s nuanced performance captures the playful banter and tender vulnerability of the text with unparalleled precision, making it a joy to listen to.

Act Three, Scene Two, featuring Rosalind and Orlando, is an absolute standout. Schild brings an infectious energy to Rosalind's clever wit and a heartfelt sincerity to Orlando's earnestness, creating a dynamic interplay that feels both timeless and intimate. The chemistry between the characters is palpable, and Schild's ability to differentiate voices while maintaining the lyrical beauty of Shakespeare’s language is a marvel. The scene’s charm, humor, and emotional depth leap from the audio, leaving the listener enchanted and utterly captivated.

Robin Schild does all the voices: old, young, male, and female!
