By William Shakespeare Directed by Tracy Williams In Shakespeare’s comedy Much Ado About Nothing, love, wit, and intrigue collide in the most delightful ways. Set at the Hotel Del Coronado in 1910, this timeless tale unfolds, where a merry war of wits ensues between the sharp-tongued Beatrice and the equally witty Benedick. Their banter sparks laughter and romance in equal measure, captivating audiences for centuries. From the youthful passion of Claudio and Hero to the clever machinations of Don Pedro and the villainous Don John, every moment in this play is a journey through the complexities of love and honor.
