Fine, challenging idea?

Rewrite any play of Shakespeare with the cast of Ranma as primary
players in a modern context, ala Ten Things I Hate About You/The Taming
of The Shrew.

Funny you should mention this...I'd written a scene from McBeth years
ago(98 or 99), mainly to answer the question once and for all if there
were a way Akane could cook.

I had been asked by a few people back then to expand it into a full play;
such literary parody was, sadly, beyond my ken.  I look forward to any
attempts to actually pull off a full Ranma/Shakespear play that actually
finishes and doesn't merely just stick the labels of Ranma and Akane onto
characters with verbatim lines.

The sardines weren't worth the trouble.  A few more shots, then
Ryoga-san would overheat and explode.  Ducking around a corner,
I managed to lose him as I entered the ramshackle residence of
my Anime supplier.

One look at his face and I knew that I had been betrayed.  "Tell me,"
I insisted.  He refused, so I slammed him against the wall.
"Last chance.  Where can Ranma-Ranma find good fanfics?"
"Try Jason Liao," he whispered, before he slumped to the floor.
I heard the sounds of a door splintering as I left through the
window, one step ahead of Tendo Heavy Industries...
