Returning to Brighton Festival, The Lord Chamberlain’s Men invite you to join them in the enchanting surroundings of St Nicholas Rest Garden for the sparkling comedy, As You Like It.

Rosalind and her friend Celia, the noble Orlando, and the usurped Duke Senior are all banished, and individually set up new lives in the Forest of Arden. Free from the constraints of their former lives, everyone wrestles with what it really means to be yourself. Bring a chair and a picnic, and see this great play as it would have originally been presented – in the open air by an all-male cast, with Elizabethan costumes, music and dance.
