'Shakespeare in the Park’ returns this May with a sumptuous take
on one of the greatest comedies of all time.
Bring a picnic basket and blanket and lie under the stars as the
park comes to life like you have never seen before.
In 2007, over 20,000 people came to SRT’s landmark production of A
Midsummer Night’s Dream at Fort Canning Park. This year’s
Much Ado About Nothing promises to be twice as much
fun.
Whether you want to enjoy a wonderful romantic comedy, be part of a
historic event, or just have a picnic, this will be a spectacular
evening for young and old.
Much Ado about Nothing
is of one of Shakespeare's best known, light-hearted comedies.
The play follows the obstacle filled courtships of two romances -
Hero and Claudio, and Benedick and Beatrice. The brilliance of the
main plot witnesses Hero and Claudio falling in love at first
sight; but as with any immediate attraction, they have a lot to
learn about each other. This is accompanied with the humorous
bickering of Beatrice and Benedick in their "merry war" of the
sexes.
The quintessential romantic comedy is layered with witty and
hilarious character interaction between the two couples, as well as
a streak of darkness from Don John who conspires against Hero and
Claudio’s wedding. In the end though, does it all turn out to be
"much ado about nothing"?
Directed by Edward Dick
Directed the hugely successful tour of Romeo and Juliet
for Shakespeare's Globe as well as A Midsummer Night's
Dream for the Sydney Theatre Company. He also directed
Twelfth Night for Regent’s Park Open Air
Theatre.
There is one other mystery play on the 21st Mar 09 which I am
interested in..It comes with dinner and you get a chance to guess
who the murderer is.. inspired by the game Cluedo(spelled something
like that...sorry if I misspelled this.. oppss).. sounds very
interesting.. but I am thinking of going for a hike in Macritche
that day and am kinda worried if I have the energy to last thru
this.. hmmm... will post more details on this later.. need to go
dig out the info.. :)
