Memories of As You Like It in 1981

You see, I loved the fact that I could go down to the edge of that thrust stage with 1,400 people in the house and start quite quietly to say "all the world's a stage" and have this ripple go through the audience, this sort of thrill, people recognizing the tune, do you know what I mean? And then suddenly they're realizing that they didn't know how it went on, and so they needed to be quiet to listen. And then they would really listen and it was magical.

~ Actor David Warrilow, who played Jaques, as told in The Guthrie Theater: Images, History and Inside Stories, by Peg Guilfoyle, executive editor Sheila Livingston
