William Shakespeare's Much Ado About Nothing is a fun, frothy romp though the travails of high school, complete with note-passing, hearsay, mistaken identity, and the big dance where everything changes.
Messina High School is overrun with rumors. Varsity footballer Benedick is convinced he can't tolerate classmate Beatrice, but rumors of Beatrice's love for him convince him otherwise. Beatrice is convinced she can't tolerate Benedick, but rumors of his love for her convince her otherwise. MVP Claudio thinks that Pedro is in love with Hero and that Hero is in love with Borachio, but in fact Hero is in love with Claudio. Joanna does her best to keep people confused. It's all Principal Dogberry can do to keep everything straight (even on the best of days that's difficult for him). Will the whole student body collapse under the weight of it all, or is it Much Ado About Nothing?
