Tom Small directs William Shakespeare’s Much Ado About Nothing. This romantic comedy of deception, love and the battle and marriage of true minds is transported to the jubilant era just after World War II. Just returned from the front lines, heroic Claudio falls for lovely Hero and they plan to wed. While evil Don John plots to prevent the happy couple from uniting, they conspire with Don Pedro to trick Benedick, a self-professed bachelor, and Beatrice, his spirited sparring partner, into falling in love with each other.
