Much Ado About Nothing
By William shakespeare
Beatrice and Benedick are totally in love. They’re also locked in an endless battle of wits that’s legendary to behold. Hero and Claudio are also totally in love. But not everyone in Messina is eager to see them tie the knot. As a series of secret plots blur perception and reality, the stubbornly single Beatrice and Benedick must reckon with the forces trying to sabotage the young couple and confront their feelings for each other while they do it. Much Ado About Nothing is Shakespeare at his wittiest – a high-stakes comedy that will make you laugh, break your heart, and then put it back together again.
