Mission Secondary presents Shakespearean comedy

Gender-bending confusion can only lead to true love along this age-old road to hilarity in As You Like It.

This year, Mission Senior Secondary, in its annual Shakespearean production, takes on the rollicking and romantic pastoral As You Like It.

Gender-bending confusion can only lead to true love along this age-old road to hilarity. Shakespeare teaches us his lesson for all time with the infamous “All the world’s a stage,” lending introspection to comedic madness.

Set in the impressionist Belle Epoque era, this is a production that will soothe your heart.

The show opened on April 28 and runs tonight, April 30 and May 6-8 at 7 p.m. Doors open at 6:30 p.m. Tickets ($5) are available by reservation at 604-826-7191 or at the door, depending on availability.
