Much Ado About Nothing
William Shakespeare
Sir Rex Harrison and an accomplished cast bring Much Ado About Nothing to life in this unique audiobook production. This classic comedy by William Shakespeare follows two pairs of lovers: the witty Benedick and Beatrice, and the sweet Claudio and Hero. As Benedick and Beatrice engage in a clever banter filled with scorn for love, Claudio and Hero experience a more tender, speechless romance.
Through the art of “noting”—which encompasses gossip and overhearing—Benedick and Beatrice are tricked into admitting their love, while Claudio faces the heart-wrenching challenge of rejecting Hero at the altar. The comedic Constable Dogberry, with his amusing malapropisms, unwittingly uncovers the dastardly tricks of the villain Don John. With a joyful conclusion, captured villains and celebrated marriages lead to a spirited dance, marking the triumph of love.
