An evening of laughter, witty banter and tangled romance awaits as Shakespeare’s classic comedy Much Ado About Nothing closes out the year on a high.

Beatrice and Benedick are the most modern of Shakespeare’s couples. They have history. They love to hate each other, yet everyone around them knows they’re perfect for each other. Can love really conquer all?

This brutally funny battle of the sexes is brought ferociously to life by a cast of renowned and emerging talent, led by Alison Bell and Fayssal Bazzi. Under the direction of Associate Artist Mark Wilson, this outrageously popular romantic comedy takes on a playfully provocative new life.

Much Ado About Nothing begins next week at the Sumner. Don’t miss the show that promises to send 2025 out with more than a little mischief.

I always wanted to be on the stage. But I learned I\’m a terrible actor (and singer) when I performed in a regional theatre production of COMPANY in Maryland. I got the part because, at the time, I had a rockin\’ body and my character Peter had to perform largely without his shirt on. And, of course, the director was very Gay.

I appreciate Shakespeare but I find his plays oten too predictable. Of course, he\’s very quotable and has provided us with iconic characters.
