Much Ado About Nothing by William Shakespeare

Join us for the 45th Anniversary Season of the Illinois Shakespeare Festival!

SYNOPSIS

They bicker and they banter, they mock and charm, they are Beatrice and Benedick, Shakespeare’s beguiling comedic characters of Much Ado About Nothing. Considered Shakespeare’s best romantic-comedy, Much Ado provides us with witty timeless language, a set of young mistake-prone lovers, bumbling sidekicks, and a perfectly matched couple who are yet to discover it.
