About Much Ado About Nothing - Globe
Sharp tongues and savage gossip fuel a messy, magnetic attraction in this new production of Shakespeare’s Much Ado About Nothing in the Globe Theatre.
The war is over, but the battle for love is just beginning. Beatrice has sworn off men, but there’s something about Benedick she just can’t leave alone.
Meanwhile, beneath Messina’s polished surface, secrets slip, gossip runs wild and reputations hang by a thread. Everyone’s saving face – and nobody’s doing it very well.
Set in a sun-soaked world of style and status, where image is everything and late-night parties blur into dawn, Chelsea Walker’s (All’s Well That End’s Well, Sam Wanamaker Playhouse, Globe) Much Ado About Nothing is one of Shakespeare’s most incisive romantic comedies.
An unfiltered look at bad behaviour, second chances, and recovering from old wounds.

- Warmly romantic
- Brilliantly witty
You’ll Love This If…
- You want an accessible way into Shakespeare
- You enjoy physical comedy and sharp comic timing
- You appreciate an immersive, historic theatre atmosphere
The magic of seeing a Shakespeare play is wonderful. The last time I was in the UK (1986) I saw A Winter's Tale in Stratford-Upon-Avon - amazing!
Venue unusual with audience response. Music so minimal and boring. Visible musicians mostly sat—wasteful use of talent
A good performance to watch but I’m a fan of Shakespeare. I enjoyed the story line and the actors was great & comical at times.
