Much Ado About Nothing
by William Shakespeare
_Love might be, as Shakespeare wrote in Sonnet 116, an
"ever-fixed mark / that looks on tempests and is never shaken" but the
lovers of Much Ado About Nothing are
anything but stable. How can humans with all our flaws share as
transcendent and beautiful an experience as love? Won't we just mess it
up? Won't it just mess us up? Much Ado explores the promises and problems of romantic love in a fun and feverish romp.

Much Ado About Nothing was produced by Portland Actors Ensemble and reviewed by the Oregonian. The show toured to four Portland area parks, Marylhurst University, Concordia University, Reed College, and the Maryhill Museum in Washington.
