Much Ado About Nothing
Will On the Water: Much Ado About Nothing by William Shakespeare Director: Regina Spain; Comedy: August 2-18 Description: “Sigh no more, ladies, sigh no more” goes a line in Much Ado, and in a good production, you will find yourself sighing—as well as laughing plenty, too. People have been asking us to do this one and it has it all: sexual tension, flirtation, verbal zingers and amusing clowns. The beautifully drawn love-hate relationship between tart-tongued Beatrice and blustery, confirmed bachelor Benedick plus another plot, which hinges on an elaborate scheme of deception and vicious shaming. Much Ado inspires belly laughs and romantic sparks—often at the same time. |
