Davis Shakespeare’s production of Much Ado About Nothing, translated by Ranjit Bolt, is a classic comedy about love, misunderstandings, and deception. In this gender-bent production, two lovers, Hero and Claudia, are betrothed while two anti-lovers, Beatrice and Benedick, quarrel. When Hero is accused of promiscuity, the band of players teams up to prove Hero’s innocence.
