We are proud to announce that this fall’s York Drama production is William Shakespeare’s beloved comedy As You Like It, described by some as the Bard’s most perfect play. It is a show that follows four interwoven storylines from tragic beginnings of brother struggling against brother, through light hearted rom-com style adventure, to a philosophical journey bringing us to the depths of human experience. This is a play about self discovery and transformation, affirming that the connections we have to each other are far more important than our differences. It is an ideal tonic for the fractured world around us.

This time can cause uncertainty as so many aspects of life continue to challenge us. It can be easy to see all the broken pieces and lose hope, especially when it's not clear how to fix things, how to react, or how long it may take. York Drama invites you to gather the shattered pieces in front of you and find the courage to strive forward, to live each day with love and compassion.

Act with empathy, lift with love, and live with courage.

We love you, Elmhurst!
