The Church of St. Paul in the Desert 125 W El Alameda, Palm Springs, CA 92262

This event offers a unique opportunity to engage in meaningful dialogue and to help shape the future of a shared community memory.

Don't Miss the Twist on Shakespeare's As You Like It!

Como Te Gusta is a vibrant, contemporary reimagining of Shakespeare’s As You Like It, performed in English while infused with a bit of Spanish, modern energy and cultural flair. Blending classic romance with a fresh, playful perspective, this adaptation explores language, identity, and love in a way that feels both timeless and new. With humor, heart, and a touch of Sabor, Como Te Gusta invites audiences to experience Shakespeare’s beloved comedy in a way that feels immediate, engaging, and entirely their own—just the way you like it.

These performances will also include Ballet Folklorico by the Ballet, Alma Folklorica Metzitli Troup!
Ballet, Alma Folklorica Metztli's mission is to teach, promote & showcase the beautiful Mexican traditional dances passed throughout times and generations to all of their audience. The group members ages ranges between 15 and 55 years old, they accept any dance member regardless of race, s*x or origin as long as they have some dance experience and can appreciate the beautiful art dance that they perform.
