ARTS Pick: All’s Well that Ends Well

The Bard is back with All’s Well that Ends Well, in a cunning adaptation of everyone’s favorite story, Cinderella. Though the title seems to hint towards “happily ever after,” this dark fairytale adopts elements of comedy and tragedy for a bittersweet study on the fickle human heart. Filled with clever wit, trademark soliloquies, and fun-filled surprises, it’s a refreshing rendition.
