'As You Like It' at Shakespeare's Globe Theatre

It is a pleasure to see this production done in its original form in the Shakespearean Globe theatre: without sets or other production just simply the actors and their lines. It feels like seeing how the play was intended to be performed and as it would have been in the old bard's time. The humour in as you like it is subtle but the actors make this the funniest version of the play I've seen. Even Jacques the melancholic philosopher gets plenty of laughs from the audience and manages to make Jacques somehow very funny without losing any of the weight of some of his most thought provoking lines. This may well be the best version of the play on screen.
