| As You Like It represents Manawatu Summer Shakespeare's twelfth consecutive annual production, during which time we have presented many of Shakespeare's best known, best loved and most memorable works and the production has grown to become one of the most eagerly awaited and central in the city's cultural calendar. The professional dirctors are recruited through Massey University's Visiting Artist scheme, and housed by Community Arts Palmerston North in an apartment in the Square Edge Arts Centre in the city. In the past directors have come from as far afield as Los angeles, and productions have won numerous awards for direction, acting, costume and set design at the local Globe Theatre Awards, with 2011 & 2012's productions being named "Production of the Year" (2013's awards are yet to be announced, though The Tempest has received several nominations). The directors for each year are listed below, along with the plays they presented. | |||
