'Much Ado About Nothing' Open-Air Garden Theatre

Wednesday 4th August, 7pm at Worcester Woods Country Park 

Raise a glass with family and friends this summer as you join Chapterhouse Theatre Company for an evening of true Shakespearian merriment under the stars. Much to the delight of the engaged Claudio and Hero, the inimitable Beatrice and her begrudging match Benedick are tricked into confessing their love for each other, with consequences both hilarious and heart-stoppingly romantic. Complete with the jealous machinations of the villainous Don John and a whole host of delightfully cheeky characters, this light-hearted love story is sure to entertain and enthral. As you picnic with family and friends beneath midsummer skies, allow the magic of the masquerade to capture your imagination and whisk you far away.
