Presented by Southwest Shakespeare Company

 

A perpetual Shakespearean favorite; rich, uplifting and oh-so-funny.

 

Leonato’s house is a happy one, complete with beautiful daughter Hero and clever niece Beatrice, as well as

Beatrice’s aging father Antonio. But when Leonato’s friends return from war, the household is turned on its ear by the

instant attraction between Hero and Claudio, and the constant bickering (and, clearly, also attraction) between

Beatrice and Benedick. But there’s a snake in the midst of all this affection, and Don John plots to destroy everyone’s happiness before some of our couples are even aware that they are indeed a couple. Masquerades reveal as much as they hide in this hilarious comedy.
