As You Like It (short story)
- You may be looking for the play.
As You Like It is the eighteenth story in The Shakespeare Notebooks, featuring the Sixth Doctor and Peri Brown.
Summary
This transcript from an early seventeenth-century staging of the play differs considerably from all known sources of text. There are obvious similarities, so the diversion may have been unique to this performance, perhaps an extreme example of improvisation by the actors involved.
Duke Senior has been usurped by his brother, Frederick, and banished from the court to the Forest of Arden. Among his fellow exiles is the melancholy Jaques. And they are not the only party obliged to make a new home in the wilderness.
