Han and Leia, Ron and Hermione, and Sam and Diane. Atop the charts of bickering, belligerent, beautifully-matched couples, you’ll still find Much Ado About Nothing’s Beatrice and Benedick. "My talk to thee must be how Benedick is sick in love with Beatrice. Of this matter is little Cupid's crafty arrow made, That only wounds by hearsay."

Performance time two hours including one brief intermission.Rain policy: Much Ado will be performed in conditions up to and including moderate rain.
