About

Ozact presents As You Like It, Shakespeare’s funniest comedy, at Heatherlie Quarry - a magnificent historical feature of the Grampians, set in a beautiful bush setting, surrounded by majestic mountains. It features relics from when the site was used to quarry stone for buildings such as Parliament House Melbourne in the late 1800's. Exiled by the wretched Duke Frederick, Rosalind and Celia are cast out into the forest. There they find challenges, adventure, and love, as city meets country - and that's just the start! As You Like It showcases one of Shakespeare's greatest character ensembles. There's an uninhibited Fool, a spunky no-nonsense country girl, a thoroughly depressed Lord, a liberated exiled Duke, and many, many more - all with the shared goal of finding their place in the world. Ozact’s adaptation of Shakespeare’s most underrated comedy will bring the play to life in some of Victoria's most interesting and spectacular locations, from the Mornington Peninsula all the way to the Grampians, all with the help of some of Australia's greatest performers. Prepare yourself for romance, action, and lots of laughs. The troupe are so happy to be back! So dust off the folding chairs and join in for some Shakespeare in the Great Outdoors this Autumn.
