Bainbridge Performing Arts will hold auditions for the upcoming production of “As You Like It” from 6:30 to 9 p.m. Tuesday, March 19.
One of Shakespeare’s funniest, most famous comedies, “As You Like It” offers something for everyone: villainy, romance, humor, memorable characters and often-quoted speeches.
This adventurous tale from the Forest of Arden combines the flavor of Robin Hood with romance around every tree. It is a story of disguise and love triangles, and all of the confusion gets sorted out in the end.
Run dates are July 12-14, July 18-21, and July 25-28, with a pay-what-you-can preview on July 11.
Rehearsals extend May 13 through July 10, Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays from 6:40 to 9:40 p.m., plus Saturdays from 11:30 a.m. to 5 p.m.
“As You Like It” features roles for at least 17 men, women and teens, age 16-and-older.
