MUCH ADO ABOUT NOTHING
Directed by Logan Verdoorn
As a group of soldiers returns home from the field, the old "merry war" of wits between iconic duo Beatrice and Benedick meets the new and troubled love of Hero and Claudio. As each couple navigates changing identities, we are asked to beware of superficial feeling, interrogate societal expectations of love and marriage, while also getting a tale chock-full of verbal banter, comedic hijinks, and some of the most endearing and beloved characters Shakespeare ever wrote in this story of old and new love.
Performing March 21 - 30, 2025 at the Crane Theater.
Running time: 2.5 hours, including intermission.
This performance will contain haze/strobe effects.
The Crane Theater is located at 2303 Kennedy St NE UNIT 120, Minneapolis, MN 55413 (behind the yellow door).
