NEW - MUCH ADO ABOUT NOTHING - Talkin' Broadway's Review

Posted by:	T.B._Admin. 08:00 pm EST 12/03/13

You know what you're in for from before the first line of dialogue, too: Each of the characters is introduced in a metatextual prologue that encourages swooning at young lovers Hero and Claudio, laughing at Beatrice and Benedick's declarations of perpetual singledom and, oh yes, hissing villains Don John and Borachia. . . .
