A nice take on what is considered and debated to be Shakespeare's weakest play. The characters are all distinct, not only from one another, but in an overall nuanced way that brings new life into this story as it is set in the present day. I also commend Leanna Keyes for two main things: first, the using of Julia/Sebastian, Shakespeare's first attempt at using crossdressing to explore a non-binary identity that it sparks; second, this script calls out Proteus for his fuck-boy nonsense, providing a proper example of how to better yourself after making similiar mistakes. Fun script!
