The beginning of a new season is always a fun and exciting time around here. Our team and crew have been working hard to put together performances that not only honor Shakespeare’s immortal stories, but also bring about new relevance and understanding in today’s world. We can’t wait to see these stories come alive on stage!

As You Like It speaks to the joy and complexity of love, identity, and the transformative power of nature. This romantic comedy follows the story of Rosalind, one of Shakespeare’s most complex female characters, as she ventures into the Forest of Arden alongside a colorful cast of characters to explore questions of love and transformation.

"I’m so delighted to bring AS YOU to MSIP! It’s a beautiful, funny, thought-provoking play about transformation and the desire to find oneself. It contains yearning and music and one-liners. I love the nature of Rosalind and Orlando’s love story and how they fall in love with each other over the very nature of love. I love the primal idea of going back to nature to find one’s deepest desires-I especially think the citizens of Montana and the mountain West will understand that impulse." - Eva Breneman, Director of As You Like It
