As You Like It is a remarkable Shakespeare play because there are four characters in it who are young or young-ish women: Rosalind, Celia, Phoebe and Audrey. Only Love's Labour's Lost and Midsummer Night's Dream have such a panoply of female roles. In addition, Rosalind is the star of the show; almost all of the action is from her perspective. This is one of the few Shakespearean plays where the central character is a woman (Cymbeline and All's Well are others). It is the only one where the female character speaks the epilogue (and Rosalind comments on how contrary to the custom that is).
