SUMMARY:Friends at First Outing to Shakespeare Musical
DESCRIPTION:Friends at First\, a fellowship group of active retired and semi-retired adults\, gathers 5-6 times a year\, often for cultural events and a shared meal. New participants are always welcome. \nThe group will be going to a musical production of the Shakespeare classic As You Like It.  \n“A Musical Adaptation of William Shakespeare’s As You Like It\nAdapted by Shaina Taub and Laurie Woolery\nMusic and lyrics by Shaina Taub\nDirected by Jessica Fisch\nNamed one of The New York Times’ best shows of 2017\, this ravishing new musical adaptation of\nShakespeare’s play is an immersive dream-like tale of faithful friends\, feuding families\, and lovers\nin disguise. Forced from their homes\, Orlando\, Duke Senior\, his daughter Rosalind\, and niece\nCelia\, are banished to the Forest of Arden\, a fantastical place full of chance encounters and selfdiscovery where all are welcomed and embraced. Lost amidst the trees\, the refugees find\nacceptance under the stars in this open-hearted celebration of the healing power of community.”
