《皆大欢喜》通常与《无事生非》及《第十二夜》并列为莎翁的三大欢庆喜剧(festivecomedy)。本剧有若干常见的莎剧主题,例如:由宫廷城都进入原始森林、善恶对比的两兄弟、女扮男装等等。本剧的独特点之一是亚登森林,它有些类似侠盗罗宾汉的雪梧森林、圣经里的伊甸园,或是文学传统的田野雅卡迪(Acardia),象征着理想世界的憧憬及向往。女主角罗莎琳是莎剧中最生动迷人的角色之一,而她女扮男装后和奥兰多所发展的情谊,则引发了同性恋议题。

Helena, the low-born ward of a Spanish countess, is in love with the countess’s son Bertram, who is indifferent to her. Bertram goes to Paris to replace his late father as attendant to the ailing King of France. Helena, the daughter of a recently deceased doctor, follows Bertram, ostensibly to offer the King her services as a healer. The King is skeptical, and she guarantees the cure with her life: if he dies, she will be put to death, but if he lives, she may choose a husband from the court. The King is cured and Helena chooses Bertram, who rejects her, owing to her poverty and low status. The King forces him to marry her, but after the ceremony Bertram immediately goes to war in Italy without so much as a goodbye kiss. He says that he will only marry her after she has borne his child and wears his family ring.
