About the Play
Love and laughter tangle in a sparkling tale of wit, trickery, and mistaken identity. The fiery Beatrice and the stubborn Benedick are hilariously duped into falling for each other, while young lovers Hero and Claudio are torn apart by a villain’s cruel deception. With bumbling constables, mischievous matchmakers, and bickering lovers they all just may need a touch of fate to make it all right in the end. Hearts are won, secrets are unraveled, and love triumphs in a joyous flourish in one of Shakespeare’s most popular comedies.
