About Much Ado About Nothing:
In Shakespeare's play, Much Ado About Nothing, power defies legacy. Throughout the show, we see greed, jealousy, and deception make a valiant effort to foil the love of young courtship. This comedic play unfolds as Leonato, leader of Spain, awaits the arrival of Don Pedro of Aragon and his victorious army of Portuguese soldados (soldiers), Benedick and Claudio. Claudio falls in love with the innocent Hero while Benedick has a fiery battle of wits with the feisty Beatrice. Meanwhile, El Bastardo, Don John, plans to ruin the upcoming wedding between Claudio and Hero after living under the shadow of the beloved Don Pedro.“Donde hay poder surgen la codicia, los celos, el engaño y el amor.”
