“The echoes of a student
production of ‘As You Like It’ reverberate down the years to its director’s
retirement party. In ‘Losing Rosalind’ Michael Pennington stars as Edmund, a
teacher who uses his school farewell to stage a reunion. His wife Juliet is
concerned about meeting her predecessor, Sylvia who was married to Edmund for
25 years. But the impending arrival of Edmund’s first wife Kate worries her
even more. Eleanor Bron plays the near-legendary starred in the play. Ellen
Dryden’s witty drama pierces the golden glow of middle-aged nostalgia.”
