The Soliloquy Project

Season 2, Episode 9: I Would Not be thy Executioner

Greater Victoria Shakespeare Festival Season 2 Episode 9

Season Two features soliloquies exclusively from Shakespeare's As You Like It.

In Episode 9, Danica Charlie performs Phebe's “I would not be thy executioner”; a soliloquy from Act Three, Scene Five.

To listen on location, make your way to Kosapsom Park at the beginning of the Gorge Waterway walking path, at the intersection of Admirals Road and Gorge Road. (The Number 11 bus route will take you here. If driving, you will find a small parking lot at Kosapsum Park off of Gorge Road). Find a large brick circle in the pavement, and position yourself in the middle of it. As you listen, walk slowly from the center of this circle, down the Gorge Waterway path. Notice the garden areas to your left, and the expanse of water to your right. If you like, step onto the grassy area to your left (before the white chain fence begins), and look out over the waterway.
