AS YOU LIKE IT SYNOPSIS
Orlando, the youngest son of the late Sir Rowland de Boys, complains that his older brother Oliver is neglecting his upbringing. Orlando confronts Oliver, who then asks a wrestler, Charles, to injure Orlando in a match the following day. The match takes place at the court of Duke Frederick, who has usurped the position from his older brother Duke Senior and exiled him to the Forest of Arden. The banished Duke’s daughter, Rosalind, has been permitted to remain at court with her cousin Celia, Frederick’s daughter. The young ladies are permitted to watch the wrestling match, where Rosalind and Orlando meet and fall in love. However, Duke Frederick banishes Rosalind from court and Celia vows to stay by her cousin’s side. Rosalind takes the disguise of a boy named “Ganymede” and Celia goes by the name “Aliena.” Touchstone, the court fool, accompanies them to the Forest of Arden.
