The Palace Gardens, Southwell Minster
Free
Join The HandleBards in the Palace Gardens at Southwell Minster as they return for a hilarious, high-octane production of Shakespeare's Much Ado About Nothing.
In usual HandleBards style, expect riotous amounts of energy, a fair old whack of chaos, and a great deal of laughter.
And what's the play about? Well – a group of soldiers return from the war to a household in Messina, kindling new love interests and re-kindling old rivalries. The parallel love stories of Beatrice, Benedick, Claudio and Hero quickly become entangled with scheming, frivolity and melodrama in Shakespeare's famous comedy.
Doors 6pm - please bring your own chairs and picnics
