As You Like It: Comedy vs. Tragedy
Before this play, I thought I was going to be relieved to read something not so depressing. However, that definitely is not the case. I thought I would like the change, but I don't. In this comedy, the plot just really lagged and wasn't exciting at all. At least in tragedies, I tried to figure out who was going to be the last man standing. This comedy just felt far-fetched and uneventful. This is just my opinion, but the comedy "As You Like It" was not funny at all. Comedy really has come a long way over time. I'm glad Shakespeare tried though. There were ironic situations that were somewhat comedic, but to me, I'd rather read a tragedy where it seems like there's so much more plot and substance to it.
