Via Bard in Boston I see that the Common show this year will be As You Like It. Hooray! A play I haven’t seen yet! Schedule runs July 18-August 3. They are back to a nice 3week schedule. I hope that’s directly related to all the bad press they got last year for squeezing us into 1 week and then complaining about how they couldn’t afford it after giving such big bonuses to all their executives. There’s nothing useful in the press release, just a bunch of patting each other on the back about how awesome Citi is for not taking away our Shakespeare. For more info you can visit CommonwealthShakespeare.org if you can find your way through all the Citibank advertising.If you’ve got younger kids you might want to check out Rebel Shakespeare up on the North Shore, who are also doing As You Like It, as well as Henry V and Romeo & Juliet.
