Shakespeare in the Park - Much Ado About Nothing

Shakespeare in the Park - Much Ado About Nothing
At Tunkhannock’s Riverside Park
Performed by: Gamut Theatre Group
Please bring your own blanket or chair to the performance.
One of Shakespeare’s liveliest plays, this comedy interweaves two plots and two pairs of lovers. Claudio and Hero, the romantic lovers, inspire poetry and music, but Beatrice, determined never to marry, and Benedick, a confirmed bachelor, are the witty vivacious lovers whose rapid word play will leave you reeling. Dogberry, the buffoonish investigator and his clueless band of watchmen make much ado about everything when they uncover the villainy of the wicked Don John and his plot to destroy the serenity of the town of Messina. Recommended for ages 12 and up, Much Ado is extremely accessible, employing Gamut’s unique educational engagement style of bridging the most famous scenes from the play together into an easy-to-understand story. This dynamic show is performed by eight highly–talented actors, runs 75 minutes, and features music, dancing, and physical comedy. This performance is followed by a talk-back discussion with the actors and audience.
