William Shakespeare's Much Ado About Nothing

1999, Messina High.

The school's basketball team has just won their final game for the season and Principal Leonata has opened the doors to her on-campus home to celebrate... with a side mission to find her daughter Hero a husband!

When the victorious team of Don Pedro, Claudio, and Benedick arrive, Claudio is immediately smitten with Hero! And, by the end of the celebratory masquerade party, a wedding is already in motion.

But Don Pedro’s bitter brother Don John — furious his team lost - plots with his BFF Borachio and GF Conrade to shatter Claudio and Hero’s relationship and destroy Leonata and Messina High's reputation.

Meanwhile, Hero's cousin Beatrice and Claudio's best friend, Benedick - past lovers turned sworn enemies - will not stop bickering. So Don Pedro intiates a deliciously manipulative plan to trick them back into love.

From parties to sabotage, gossip to shame, and one magnificently incompetent constable, Conundrum Theatre’s Much Ado About Nothing channels the energy of a 90s coming-of-age film through Shakespeare’s text. Big feelings, bad decisions, first love, public chaos and the question at the heart of every teen comedy: is any of this worth the drama — or is it all much ado about nothing.
