Much Ado About Nothing
Written by William Shakespeare
Directed by Eleanor Holdridge
 
February 20th – March 16th, 2008
 
The end of the battle is the beginning of their romance.
 
Benedick and Beatrice don’t get along.  He swears he will die a bachelor.  She swears she will never trust a man.  These opposites simply do not attract, but their friends and family have other plans in mind.  Love reveals itself in mysterious ways in Shakespeare’s witty and moving comedy, directed by Eleanor Holdridge (Season 27’s The Crucible). The ultimate battle of the sexes, Shakespeare-style.
