Much Ado About Nothing is now showing at Shakespeares Globe Theatre
Why see Much Ado About Nothing?
"I would rather hear my dog bark at a crow than a man swear he loves me"
War-weary heroes return to their Mediterranean home, but now sparks fly as a different battle commences. Will love triumph?
Starring Shakespeare's most reluctant lovers, Much Ado is a joyous, wise-cracking comedy of love, honour and second chances.
Please Note: there will be a captioned performance on the 16th June.
Theatre policy relating to cancelled performances to inclement weather:
The auditorium and stage are completely uncovered. Every effort to complete the performance will be made and the theatre reserves the right to stop and start the action as necessary. Performances are never cancelled or abandoned before the advertised starting time and then only in the event of very bad weather. If cancellation or abandonment is unavoidable, ticket holders will be entitled to equivalent seats for any other performance in the main season (excludes comedy and music events), subject to availability. Original tickets for a performance that has been cancelled can be exchanged directly with the box office at the Open Air Theatre for another performance.
