Quotes from the review of As You Like It by the NORTH TEXAS LITERARY CRITICISM website.
"The audience for Stolen Shakespeare Guild's As You Like It outnumbered the cast by one. That was unfortunate because the cast gave a highly-entertaining presentation of Shakespeare. I won't call them amateurs; this is high-quality work. Among the cast bios, I counted 8 with bachelors degrees or above, several in theater, and three current students. One actor mentioned studying theater, but not graduating. The others may have just not mentioned their college training. All in all, a well-educated cast with the know-how to bring Shakespeare to life."
"Jule Nelson-Duac was outstanding as Rosalind. She was superbly backed by Lauren Morgan as Celia. Both women delivered Shakespeare's lines with great naturalness, nothing artificial, nothing I'm-reciting-poetry about them. "
"Shelton Windham as Orlando and Benjamin Darling as Oliver did this as well, ably supporting the women as they deserved to be supported"
"Lisa D'Alessandro enhanced the show by her lovely singing and guitar playing."
"The director, Jason Morgan, clearly understands Shakespearean theater. He effectively used the different areas of the set to move the play through the different scenes. Renaissance theater with its multitude of scenes can be difficult because the act structure of the modern theater is different. He handled it well."
