Summer Theatre - Much Ado about Nothing
Join Changeling Theatre at Polesden Lacey for a revival of Shakespeare's romantic comedy, Much Ado About Nothing, performed in the grounds on 18 and 22 July at 7pm.
- Booking essential
Much Ado About Nothing is the perfect summer play. Beatrice and Benedick swear they can’t stand each other. Hero and Claudio seem picture-perfect until a little drama crashes their party. Lurking behind the cocktails and confetti is one deliciously devious Don John stirring up trouble.
It’s sharp, it’s funny, it’s Shakespeare’s ultimate romcom with more twists, tunes and turns than you can shake a stick at.
