When a group of friends and rivals comes together to prepare for a wedding, deceit, flirtation, and wit run amok. One of Shakespeare’s most celebrated comedies, Much Ado About Nothing follows the story of two pairs of lovers — one betrothed, the other reluctant — who face a whole cast of characters dedicated to meddling in their relationships. Featuring live music, this production celebrates giving yourself over to the power of love…and accepting the chaos that comes with it.
