'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.
