Rosalind, a dance reworking of Shakepeare’s As You Like It by UK dance group James Cousins Company and Korean dancers in Seoul, will be performed outside of South Korea for the very first time.

This unique UK-Korean collaboration relocates the rule-bound royal court and the free Forest of Arden to a modern East Asian city. By day, it’s a conservative society; by night, it’s a wonderland where people can be free, to be who they want, with whom they want.

During their visit to Indonesia, James Cousins Company will also work with students from participating universities and colleges to reinterpret Shakespeare’s As You Like It for contemporary Indonesia. 

The company will also perform in Solo.

Free with registration.

The Rosalind programme in Indonesia is part of Shakespeare Lives, a global programme of events and activities celebrating Shakespeare's work throughout 2016, the 400th anniversary of his death.
