MARMION PATRICK MARMION: As the 'new' lovers Rosalind and Orlando in Shakespeare's woodland romance, we have a good idea for RSC couple Geraldine James (72) and Malcolm Sinclair (73) as a 'new' lover. Even though tales about elderly people falling in love among adults can make it a little uncomfortable (not least to the oldsters themselves). However, romance doesn't have to be all Romeo and Juliet to function. Older people have as much to lose as younger lovers, and they definitely have more to lose.
For a new production of As You Like It, the Royal Shakespeare Company has recruited almost half of the cast members over 70

All around the world's stage, and all the men and women are over 70, or so it should be said of a new Shakespeare performance. The Royal Shakespeare Company has welcomed a cast (pictured) nearly entirely aged over 70 to perform As You Like It from next month at the Royal Shakespeare Theatre in Stratford-upon-Avon. Michael Bertenshaw, 78, Malcolm Sinclair, 77, and Geraldine James, both 72, will play Phoebe, Oliver, Orlando, and Rosalind respectively.
