Shakespeare Festival Presents Brown Box Theatre | Much Ado About Nothing

Shakespeare Festival Presents Brown Box Theatre | Much Ado About Nothing

The Lewes Public Library Spoken Word Society and Shakespeare Festival presents a return engagement of Free Outdoor Shakespeare, with a performance of Much Ado About Nothing by the Brown Box Theatre Project.

Upon their return from war, a group of soldiers are reminded that life and love are not so black and white. Trickery, jealousy, deceit, and masquerade each play a role in challenging Benedict and Beatrice’s scorn for love (and each other) as well as the seemingly unassailable love of Claudio and Hero. Through witty banter and dastardly deception, Shakespeare’s beloved comedy, Much Ado About Nothing debates the preconceived notion of how to love and the value of trust. Directed by Kyler Taustin.

Enjoy the Bard under the stars on the lawn behind the library. Bring blankets or lawn chairs for your comfort. In case of inclement weather, the performance will be in the large meeting room and will be restricted to the first 100 people attending.

No registration required.

The Shakespeare Festival is partially funded by a grant from the Delaware Humanities, a state program of the National Endowment for the Humanities, and by a grant from the Delaware Division of the Arts, a state agency, in partnership with the National Endowment for the Arts. The Division promotes Delaware arts events on DelawareScene.com.
