Shakespeare - Much Ado About Nothing

Love & Wit Collide. FRI AUG 21, 2026 – SAT SEP 5, 2026

The original rom-com. Much Ado About Nothing is one of William Shakespeare’s most popular comedies, believed to have been written between 1598 and 1599. The play is set in Messina, Italy, and is a brilliant exploration of love, deception, and miscommunication, featuring two very different but equally engaging romantic pairings.

Set against a backdrop of summer parties and high-stakes social climbing, Shakespeare created the ultimate rom-com proves that the path to a “happily ever after” is paved with misunderstood DMs and malicious rumours. Was the big misunderstanding a result of spilling toxic “tea”, or was the attraction already rooted in their own stubborn hearts?

Much Ado About Nothing (Shakespeare) is a fast-paced, hilarious battle of the sexes. Is a real connection worth trading for a savage comeback?

We’re thrilled to be starting our journey in partnership with the wonderful Theatre Roulant.  Our production of Much Ado About Nothing will be premiering on the Theatre Roulant Stage at Waring House August 20th – September 3rd 2026
