Orlando is the story of a young nobleman drawn into a love affair with Queen Elizabeth I. The poet and lover’s escapades “keep him at the heart of a maximalist, over-the-top tale where gender and gender preferences shift regularly, usually with hilarious results,” according to the School of Theatre description.
