"There's a kind of offhand poetry in [playwright James] McLure's implicit equation of the destruction of a classic car to lost American innocence, and of a tainted marriage to punctured masculinity.

"In the hands of a great director and performers, [Much Ado About Nothing] soars. That is the case more often than not with Kenny Leon's production for Shakespeare in the Park, which transposes this story of high jinks in Renaissance Sicily to modern America." Read Zachary Stewart's full review here.
