Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: do anyone know anything about Phebe from the play As You Like It ?

Oh man! I love As You Like It!! Totally an all time favorite. In As You Like It, there is a poor sheepherder guy who is absolutely in love with a girl named Phebe but Phebe won't give him the time of day! He's always chasing after her yelling "PHEBE!!", It's some of the best comedic moments. Phebe runs into Rosalind who is dressed as a man and falls in love with Rosalind who is in reality a girl... AWKWARD! Then when Phebe tells Rosalind she wants to marry "him" Rosalind says that if Phebe decides not to marry Rosalind she must marry the sheepherder-who's-name-escapes-me. Rosalind reveals herself as a woman and Phebe ends up marrying the man who loves her, she decides he's not that bad after all. I would describe her as kind of ditzy, and not really down to earth, she's a terrible romantic waiting for the perfect man to come along and sweep her off her feet. She is a poor country girl who lives in a forest. Um... that's about all I can give you hope it helps!

she is very animated and stubborn, and ignores the geeky guy who is head over heals in love with her. She has a fiery girlie personality. I saw the play in Ashland!

Phoebe - A young shepherdess, who disdains the affections of Silvius. She falls in love with Ganymede, who is really Rosalind in disguise, but Rosalind tricks Phoebe into marrying Silvius.
