All Shook Up is currently running at Tacoma Musical Playhouse. It's a play inspired by and featuring the songs of Elvis Presley, with a book by Joe DiPietro. The play is also based on Shakespeare's Twelfth Night, which does a much better job with the formulaic plot line: boy wants girl who wants other boy who wants other girl, and so on. Then girl dresses as boy to get close to the one she wants, another girl falls for him(her) causing supposed hilarity.

Confused? Don't be. It's the same story retold in countless romantic comedies throughout the ages. Read the full review here.
