Much Ado About Nothing

by William Shakespeare
directed by Fred Sullivan, Jr.

Sept. 10-Nov. 29, 2009

Not about nothing, the Bard’s Much Ado About Nothing casts the serious themes of love, fear of commitment, jealousy and retribution in a sexy, sizzling, side-splitting comedy about two very different (and equally convoluted!) courtships. The Gamm revisits and reinvents its 2000 production of Much Ado About Nothing, reuniting Resident Director Fred Sullivan, Jr. with Artistic Director Tony Estrella and Resident Actors Jeanine Kane and Sam Babbitt as Benedick, Beatrice and Leonato.
