As You Like It and The Tempest
Last spring, The Bridge Project launched its inaugural season at BAM with an outstanding ensemble of American and British actors in Shakespeare’s The Winter’s Tale and Tom Stoppard’s adaptation of The Cherry Orchard. Led by Tony and Academy Award–winning director Sam Mendes, year two of The Bridge Project promises another stellar transatlantic lineup and an intriguing pairing of two Shakespeare plays as Mendes and company explore outcasts, power, and magical lands with their world premiering productions of the comedy As You Like It and The Tempest, considered to be Shakespeare’s last play.
I enjoyed the first installment and will be attending this if anyone wants to join! As You Like It is one of my favorite Shakespeare plays. Tickets on sale December 7, starting at $25.
