Witty playwright Oscar Wilde is most famous for his 1895 play "The Importance of Being Earnest." The two protagonists use a false identity, Earnest, as a way to escape from unwanted social obligations. However, they encounter difficulties keeping up their personas as their social circles draw closer together. Wilde drew upon what he thought were outrageous social conventions of the Victorian Era and used satire to show the absurdity of its beliefs, like how marriage was more of a boring burden than a joyous commitment.

Voice performance
Revisado: 05-02-25
Robin Schild does all the voices in this audiobook, including the women’s voices. This is particularly impressive in scenes with two women, such as between Cecily and Gwendolen in Act Two. Each woman has a distinct voice separate and different from the other. The pacing kept me engaged, and the humor in the text was amplified by the performance.

As You Like It follows its heroine Rosalind as she flees persecution in her uncle's court, accompanied by her cousin Celia and Touchstone the court jester, to find safety and, eventually, love, in the Forest of Arden. Historically, critical response has varied, with some critics finding the work of lesser quality than other Shakespearean works and some finding the play a work of great merit.

The audio production of *As You Like It* performed by Robin Schild is a masterful rendering of Shakespeare’s pastoral comedy, brimming with wit, emotion, and vibrant characterizations.
Schild’s nuanced performance captures the playful banter and tender vulnerability of the text with unparalleled precision, making it a joy to listen to.
Act Three, Scene Two, featuring Rosalind and Orlando, is an absolute standout. Schild brings an infectious energy to Rosalind's clever wit and a heartfelt sincerity to Orlando's earnestness, creating a dynamic interplay that feels both timeless and intimate. The chemistry between the characters is palpable, and Schild's ability to differentiate voices while maintaining the lyrical beauty of Shakespeare’s language is a marvel. The scene’s charm, humor, and emotional depth leap from the audio, leaving the listener enchanted and utterly captivated.
