    "And this, our life, exempt from public haunt, finds tongues in trees, books in the running brooks, sermons in stones, and good in everything."

    It's easy to find good in everything when summer's spell has cast a smile on every face. Summer is also especially joyous in the Springs as Theatreworks launches its annual Shakespeare Festival to kick off another triumphant season of theatrical excellence. Performing the Bard's comedic gem As You Like It, Theatreworks celebrates the magic and restorative powers of the great outdoors. Also running in repertory with As You Like It is an adaptation of Shakespeare's Venus and Adonis.

    About As You Like It: A group of desperate refugees fly from an oppressive court, and in the great outdoors they find all the world’s a stage. Freedom ripples through every brook; love blooms on every branch. It’s Shakespeare’s richest comedy, featuring his greatest heroine, Rosalind, the girl who dresses like a boy to teach the boy how to get the girl. No one does it better.
