'Much Ado About Nothing' Gets 1970s Twist At Dublin HS: Tickets
Charged with peace, love and understanding, the William Shakespeare classic premieres Thursday and runs through Saturday.
DUBLIN, CA — Join the Dublin High School drama department as it puts a 1970s mood into a classic William Shakespeare work that circles around themes of loyalty, slander, intrigue, blinding pride and troubles of love.
DHS's production of "Much Ado About Nothing" premieres Thursday, Nov. 7, and runs through Saturday, Nov. 9.
Written by Shakespeare in 1598, "Much Ado About Nothing" is a romantic comedy with much drama: Benedick and Beatrice don't love each other, but then they do. Claudio and Hero love each other, but then they don't, and then they do again. Don John hates his brother, Don Pedro, and tries to sabotage him. Margaret just wants to be loved. Dogberry insists he is an ass and then saves the day. Everyone gets married.
