Synopsis
After a recent board of education enquiry forced the removal of Headmaster and senior staff, a new management team led by Duke Frederick have imposed a strict disciplinarian regime.
In an attempt to offer an alternative, the deposed Headmaster Duke senior (and associated staff ) have set up a forest school dedicated to a more alternative teaching approach including Yoga, meditation and other creative outlets.
With the change in staff at Arden Grammar causing pain and division within the student body, Rosalind & best friend Celia embark on a journey to be reunited with her Father at the forest school. Meanwhile love begins to blossom between the now banished Orlando, and Ganymede (a cross-dressing Rosalind). Will balance & power be returned to its rightful owner, and will love ultimately find a way in the face of adversity?
