Do this today: Enjoy the Bard al fresco

Readers, the summer season may not officially begin until the 21st, but the theater season at the rustic and lush Theatricum Botanicum in Topanga always seems like a herald of more lazy, hazy, hang-back times. The comedy "As You Like It" kicks it off tonight, with a Civil War-era take on the Bard's tale of mistaken identity. Tickets are $20-$28.
Also today, at the Skirball Center, the West African ensemble Dafra offers a lively performance of traditional call-and-response singing, drumming and dance. No reservations are required.
Cheers!
