Much Ado About Nothing
Much Ado About Nothing is a story of old and new love. As a group of soldiers returns home from the field, the old "merry war" of wits between iconic duo Beatrice and Benedick is contrasted with the new and troubled love of Hero and Claudio. As each couple navigates their new and changing identities, the play asks us to beware of superficial feeling, interrogate societal expectations of love and marriage, and ultimately gives us a tale chock-full of verbal banter, comedic hijinks, and some of the most endearing and beloved Shakespeare characters ever written.
The Winter’s Tale
Experience a breathtaking tale of jealousy, love, revenge, fate and astonishing grace. The Winter’s Tale is a story that crosses seas and decades, both a classic folktale and an astonishingly modern love story that imagines the possibility of grace and redemption at the furthest extremes of human folly.
Romeo & Juliet
The greatest love story ever told, Shakespeare’s classic drama of two feuding families and the children who find connection across a border of hatred is Shakespeare at his most ecstatic, delightful, and heartbreaking. Romeo & Juliet is a tale of two young people who learn about growing up by falling in love before it ultimately kills them. Rediscover this devastating story of age versus youth on the Dream Project.
