As You Like It
If you see a sonnet dangled from a limb
Or the tenderly carved name of "Rosalind"
In the bark of a tree in your city park
During Rochesterfest sometime around dark...
Or if you hear sweet wooing amongst the bushes,
A bleating and baaing, a guffawing and mushiness
Of shepherds and shepherdesses it's safe to know
It's Celia, Oliver, Rosalind and Orlando.
More! If you don't believe in love at first sight,
You'd better go into the forest that night
And taste of the Master Bard's whimsical wit
Played by a traveling troupe, just "As You Like It".

Bringing a tradition enjoyed world-wide to Rochester, Words Players Theatre will present its third annual Shakespeare in the Park event in June as a part of Rochesterfest.
