To create the music for As You Like It, Barefoot worked with Music Director James Kivlen (who also played Amiens), using Shakespeare’s words and taking inspiration from the music of the Great Depression.  As You Like It also featured tried-and-true favorites from the era, such as “Big Rock Candy Mountain” and “Hobo’s Lament”.
