All the World's a Trope: As You Like It

20091125_aslike250.jpg ONGOING: Shakespeare's comedies can be a little jarring — when the Greek gods show up, the newbies tune out — but "As You Like It" offers some of the Bard's most famous speeches and most intriguing and three-dimensional female characters.

As with all Elizabethan comedies, there's a lot of cross-dressing, people falling rapidly in and out of love, and similarly ridiculous plot twists.
