"Much Ado about Nothing," May 1-4 at 7 pm at Southwest High School Black Box

Come see the student directed play, "Much Ado about Nothing" May 1, 2, 3 and 4 at 7 pm in the Chris Fisher Black Box Theatre, Southwest High School.

Much Ado About Nothing is one of Shakespeare's most famous comedies. A story of love, pride, honor, disloyalty, deception, misinterpretation, discovery, forgiveness, and wit centers around two love stories. Beatrice and Benedick are ruthlessly clever, have known each other forever, and are highly reluctant to fall in love. Hero and Claudio are young and in love but when Don John deceives Claudio into thinking that Hero has slept with someone else things take a turn for the worse. Comedy (and drama) ensues. 

This production is set in 1927 which means Jazz, mobsters, and the Charleston. Come join us- it’s going to be a ridiculous amount of fun.

The show performs May 1-4 at 7:00 in the Southwest Black Box. 3414 W 47th St, Minneapolis. $5.00 for students, $10.00 for adults.
