Much Ado About Nothing

In his comedy, Much Ado About Nothing, Shakespeare weaves an intricate tale of love and deception. There is the sweet, forthright love of Hero and Claudio set against Benedick and Beatrice’s sizzling battle of wits. There is Leonato’s gleeful plotting to spark a romance between Beatrice and Benedick and the cruel hoax contrived by Don John to plant suspicion, dishonor Hero and spoil the marriage. It is a celebration of life and love. In Much Ado About Nothing, Shakespeare’s characters summon up love, honor and faith to avert tragedy and inspire the heart.

SEUSSICAL THE MUSICAL

Seussical comes from the Tony award-winning duo who brought you Ragtime and Once On This Island. A musical extravaganza filled with toe-tapping tunes, Seussical borrows its plot directly from the characters and occurrences in various Dr. Seuss children’s books. In fact, Seussical integrates the storylines from more than 20 of Seuss’ works, using each tiny town and bizarre species of creature as inspiration. Driving this fanciful tale of self-discovery and true friendship is that beloved master of imagination, the Cat in the Hat. He is helped along the way by Horton and his lovesick neighbor, Gertrude McFuzz, and a wide range of whimsical characters.
