Great Northern Artists Collaborative (GNAC) is proud to announce its latest production, Shakespeare’s tragic comedy Much Ado About Nothing.
Set in the garden of Leonato’s Tuscan villa in the years after World War 1, Much Ado About Nothing is a clever combination of comedy, wit, deception, and love.
The play revolves around the story of romantic couple, Hero, daughter of the governor of Messina, and Claudio, a count from Florence. While these young lovers prepare for their wedding, scheming forces conspire to undo it all. Filled with humor, mistaken identities, and powerful truths, this timeless tale asks what it really means to trust, to forgive, and to love.
Directed by Sarah Anson & Trevor Hill, Much Ado About Nothing will be performed August 15, 16, 22 and 23 at 7:00 p.m. and August 17 and 24 at 2:00 p.m. at the GNAC Theater, 8396 Morgan Road in Clay.
“Known for their brilliant deception and disguise, Shakespeare’s comedies are filled with poetic language and complex characters,” said Hill. “We are thrilled to be bringing one of Shakespeare’s most beloved plays to life on the GNAC stage.”
