Or more specifically (shameless plug alert!)
the Festival Theatre Ensemble's 2008 production of
"As You Like It"
featuring myself as Rosalind.
According to the FTE website;
"As You Like It follows an enchanting assortment of love struck wanderers as they weave their way through the Forest of Arden in a deliciously romantic, comic concoction of cross-dressing, courtiers, country folk, and a clown!"
We have been in rehearsing for a while now and if I do say so myself it looks to be an excellent show (if I could get my freakin' lines memorized [Rosalind is said to be the largest female character Shakespeare ever wrote, mainly cuz she is incapable of shutting up!!!:P])
The show opens and performs in Menlo Park on
June 7th, 8th, 15th and 28th at 8:00 pm.
All performances in Menlo Park are free (bring your own blankets!)!
A map to the location can be found here;

OR
You can see it in Los Gatos (where it's hecka warmer!) on
July 20th, 25th, August 2nd and 7th
Those tickets aren't free but the sight-lines are better and like I said, it's hecka warmer than Menlo.
All info about those performances can be found here;

This will be a really awesome show!!! Rosalind is a character I've been wanting to play for a long time and I'm really excited about it!
If anyone is in the area and has any interest in summer Shakespeare, then I hope you have a chance to see it!
