Ukmerge At the Woodstock Shakespeare Festival this weekend, where I was treated to the pleasures of the usual players, including David Aston-Reese’s melancholy Jaques, immersed in nature, “weeping and commenting upon the sobbing deer.” I intend to enlarge on this theme later.

And As You Like It is perhaps of all his plays the one most suited to Catskill life, far from the “painted pomps” of courteous life.
