Much Ado About Nothing

Livermore Shakes at Concannon Vineyard brings together culture, friendship, award-winning wine and a stunningly beautiful outdoor landscape for a truly memorable experience. Summer 2014 brings Shakespeare’s beloved comedy, Much Ado About Nothing. Directed by Lisa A. Tromovitch. “Thou and I are too wise to woo peaceably.” (V.ii) For feisty Beatrice and Benedick, love is a game of wits, a “merry war” of verbal sparring and one-upmanship. For Hero and Claudio, it is conventional romance, leaving them love-struck and tongue-tied. These opposite love stories play out against a comic background of scoundrels and clowns – when villainy threatens, it is the bumbling Dogberry who saves the day. Much Ado About Nothing, full of love and laughter, will both delight and entertain you.
