Description

Born on the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation, Cardinal studied playwriting at the National Theatre School of Canada. The title of William Shakespeare’s 'As You Like It' holds a double meaning that teasingly suggests the play can please all tastes. But is that possible? With his subversive updating of the Bard’s classic, Indigenous creator and cultural provocateur Cliff Cardinal seeks to find out. The show exults in bawdy humour, difficult subject matter, and raw emotion; Cardinal is not one to hold back when it comes to challenging delicate sensibilities.

WINNER of the 2023 Governor General's Literary Award for Drama.
