Since the beginning of the school year, our Senior class has been hard at work bringing to life their adaptation of William Shakespeare's Much Ado About Nothing.
Originally published in 1600, this play has been beloved by countless audiences through the centuries for its wit, humor, and heart. We would be delighted if you would be part of our audience as the students showcase their interpretation of one of the Bard's greatest comedies!
While there is no admission fee for the performance, our Drama Program is grateful to you for considering a suggested donation of $5 per person or $20 per family.
(Concessions will be offered before the play and during our ten-minute intermission, hosted by the House of Ambrose.)

Summary of Play:
When Don Pedro, Prince of Aragon, arrives in Messina on his way home from war, it's love at first sight for Claudio and the Lady Hero. Less enchanted to be together again are rivals Benedick and Beatrice, whose passionate banter borders the line between love and hate. When their friends conspire to bring them together, they are forced to confront the true nature of their feelings for each other, but not all the conspiracies at play are so well-intentioned. Donna Gianna, the Prince's sister, plots to thwart Claudio and Hero's upcoming wedding. Will love conquer all for our couples, or will comedy turn to tragedy at the villain's hand?
Come and find out on Saturday!
