The Forest of Arden is a busy place these days! It’s full of people who are not what they seem. Brothers are hiding from brothers. An exiled Duke and his followers have set up a court in the forest. A love-struck man is attaching poems to the trees. And two young women are wandering the woods in disguise. Everyone has a secret! And when there are disguises….. there is trouble! Featuring a preposterous wrestling match, a depressed philosopher, an insightful court jester, a lovesick goatherd, a disdainful shepherdess, and a very bad poet, this play is one of Shakespeare’s favourites. Anything can happen in Arden…. and it does! This year, we raised $2800 for the Rideau Valley Wildlife Sanctuary.
