Velvet-Club Connecting Lesbians & Bi-women around the World
Join us for a joyous (Time Out), exuberant (Daily Telegraph) celebration of love, friendship and freedom in Shakespeares As You Like It. In the court of Duke Frederick, division and distrust are rife. When Rosalind is banished, she runs away with her cousin Celia to the Forest of Arden. No longer governed by the courts strict rules, they take the opportunity to explore new identities and find that the forest is a place where the possibilities for love and connection are infinite. In this ancient community of nature, unexpected friendships are forged, curious minds meet, bitter enemies reconcile, and strangers fall in love. So meet us in our wooden O and who knows what or who you might find? Director Ellen McDougalls delightful (Daily Mail) production is a pleasure bringing an infusion of warmth (Evening Standard) to the end of the summer.
