Today I witnessed the strangest interpretation of As You Like It that I think I will ever see

DYSTOPIAN As You Like It

By intermission, I was ready to walk out

By the end, I was delighted

I am confused and baffled

A final picture from my Banff office before I hand in my key—and all 104 pages of freshly-written words ready for me to read on the long flight home.

I don’t think I can describe what this experience has been.
