Shakespeare's AS YOU LIKE IT at Cloudehill Gardens

OZACT presents AS YOU LIKE IT,  Shakespeare’s funniest comedy. 

Exiled by the wretched Duke Frederick, Rosalind and Celia are cast out into the forest. There they find challenges, adventure, and love, as city meets country. And that's just the start! AS YOU LIKE IT showcases one of Shakespeare's greatest character ensembles.

There's an uninhibited Fool, a spunky no-nonsense country girl, a thoroughly depressed Lord, a liberated exiled Duke, and many, many more. All with the shared goal of finding their place in the world.

OZACT’s adaptation of Shakespeare’s most underrated comedy will bring the play to life in some of Victoria's most interesting and spectacular locations, from the Mornington Peninsula all the way to the Grampians, all with the help of some of Australia's greatest performers.

Prepare yourself for romance, action, and lots and lots of laughs.

We're so happy to be back in the idyllic setting of Cloudehill Gardens. Its formal gardens, majestic trees and colourful floral borders, sweeping lawns and green garden amphitheatre, provides the perfect location for Shakespeare outdoors.
