This performance comes to the National Theatre for the first time in more than 30 years, with Rosalie Craig as Rosalind. With her father, the Duke, banished and in exile, Rosalind and her cousin, Celia, leave their lives in the court behind them and journey into the Forest of Arden.
There, released from convention, Rosalind experiences the liberating rush of transformation. Disguising herself as a boy, she embraces a different way of living and falls in love.
This performance will happen at 11:30 a.m.
