Trivia
Elisabeth Bergner played "Rosalind" in Germany but left in 1933 when Adolf Hitler came to power. She said she would not play the role in English until she perfected her English accent. However, many reviewers complained that her German accent was still very prominent.
Little is known about the first performance (ca 1599), but tradition has it that William Shakespeare himself had the part of "Adam". The play was rarely performed thereafter for more than 100 years.
Jacques: All the world's a stage, and all the men and women merely players. They have their exits and their entrances, and one man in his time plays many parts...
