THIS PRODUCTION HAS CONCLUDED
William Shakespeare’s
Much Ado About Nothing
MARCH 19 – APRIL 5, 2026
By William Shakespeare
Festival Stage | Ages 12 +
A sparkling comedy where hearts are won, masks are dropped, and love triumphs — though not without a fight
The war is over, but the real battle is just beginning in this whimsical comedy. With wit as their weapon of choice, Beatrice and Benedick spar with relentless charm, unaware that love is quietly taking aim. Friends plot to bring them together, secrets threaten to tear others apart, and Shakespeare’s surprisingly modern romantic comedy delivers a whirlwind of romance, deception, and laugh-out-loud mischief.
