Synopsis
Claudio loves Hero and Hero Claudio and nothing seems capable of keeping them apart. Claudio’s friend Benedick loves Beatrice and Beatrice Benedick, but (because neither will admit it) nothing seems capable of bringing them together. Only the intrigues of a resentful prince force Benedick to prove his love for Beatrice – by killing his best friend.
Driven along by a romance all the more charming for being in denial, Much Ado About Nothing is a miracle of comic and dramatic suspense and gives us, in the bantering Beatrice and Benedick, two of Shakespeare’s wittiest, most endearing pair of lovers.
Globe Education are excited to be offering in-school workshops for all stages and abilities throughout the Autumn touring theatre season.
Whether a day of workshops at your school to introduce Much Ado About Nothing to your students to accompany your trip to the theatre, or a study day focusing on language, character or performance skills, we can tailor our work to your students’ needs. All of our workshops and sessions are delivered by professional actors and directors working for Globe Education, and all fulfil the requirements of the English National Curriculum and Theatre Studies Curriculum across all Key Stages and all abilities.
