| Itinerary: |
| * Mount Royal University's Shakespeare in the Park is one
of Calgary's most anticipated events. Since 1987, thousands of
people have come to see the Bard's classics performed in the
great outdoors each summer.
The play synopsis: Much Ado About Nothing's five acts follow two pairs of lovers. While the romance between Claudio and Hero forms the main plot, the action is in fact mostly concerned with their counterparts Beatrice and Benedick whose sharp tongued wit provides the energy and drive for this hilarious battle of the sexes.
The play was most likely first performed in 1598 or 1599. Its style shares many features of the modern romantic comedy and it remains one of Shakespeare's most enduringly popular works.
Suggested
donation to keep the program running is between $10-20.
Minimum donation for this group is $10 each,
please. Please note your CCC
Coordinator may reschedule this event if it is raining (or snowing
or hailing!).
