As You Like It is a pastoral comedy by William Shakespeare, written in 1599 and first published in the First Folio of 1623. The play follows Rosalind as she escapes her uncle's court with her cousin Celia and the court jester Touchstone, seeking refuge and love in the Forest of Arden. It explores themes of love, identity, and the contrast between court life and pastoral simplicity. Notable for its famous monologue 'All the world's a stage,' the play has been widely adapted and remains popular in modern performances.
