From a long time ago...

                Well. having just watched the first two acts I found that the stage is quite interesting. Because of how the actors walk on and off the stage through the crowd there is a lot more interaction with the crowd than the book could portray. I think that this improves the performance because I feel part of it even though  I am not even in the theater. 
                I also found the transition between court and the forest was also amazing. I think that the way that the trees appeared added to the magical attributes that we experience during the characters stay in the forest, furthering the Pastoral nature of the play.  Because if the magical features of the forest appearing out of the court it also foreshadows the similarities of between the two settings.
                The characters in the play are also quite helpful to understand there position in each situation. In the Globe production Rosalind and Celia both are wearing very restrictive because of the fashion. This introduces the reader and audience of the restrictive nature of the court that is discussed further in the play by many different characters. This is also seen in the change in their attire when they more to the forest and both are wearing clothing that does not confine as much as their court wear. Also the jester is very dressed up while in the court and removes him from the more important people of  the court, while in the forest he is dresses like every one else. This change assists the contributes to the idea in the pastoral that every one is equal.
