As You Like It, more or less
Shakespearean fools never interest me on the page, but I have to admit that the actor who played Touchstone as if he were channeling Russell Brand really made it work for me.
Last time I read (okay, skimmed) AYLI, which was for a class, we mostly ended up discussing the M/M homoeroticism of Elizabethan transvestite theatre in general and 'Ganymede'/Orlando in particular, but the F/F homoeroticism is also really fun! I mean, it doesn't go anywhere canonically either, because Rosalind is SO MEAN to all of her girlfriends, but still.
