After civil war Messina seems to have returned to peace with few casualties and a courtship holds the promise of reconciling the battle of the sexes in a well matched wedding. But the reconciliation's have been too hurried and soldiers can't return to the civilian world overnight. <a href="http://www.shootingstarstheatre.com">Website</a> Straight from the RSC Fringe Festival, after last year's triumphant 'Romeo & Juliet', Shooting Stars Theatre Company return with our version of 'Much Ado About Nothing'! We set one of Shakespeare's funniest and best-loved comedies in a modern context that's accessible to everyone. With the men returning from fighting in Afghanistan, the ever-present battle of wits between Benedick and Beatrice isn't the only game afoot! As always, Shooting Stars Theatre Company provide a fresh and vibrant take on an old favourite. Performed with our customary boundless energy, 'Much Ado About Nothing' will provide both humour and heartbreak for an audience of all ages.
