"Love at first sight sets a long, comedic path for a pair of young nobles in this William Shakespeare classic. Rosalind, niece of a cruel, power-hungry duke, instantly falls for the brave and handsome Orlando de Boys. Orlando is truck by her beauty, but through the misdeed of his brother Oliver, is to live in Arden Forest as a fugitive. Rosalind disguises herself as a man and follows Orlando in an effort to discover the depths of is love. Her playful courtship proves they are meant for each other, but the pair will have to find a way to overcome their exile before they can be wed. Shakespeare's beloved tale of romantic games and love's triumph is brought to life through a charming adaptation by J.M. Barrie (author of Peter Pan).
