Much Ado About Nothing

Fury Theatre proudly presents our second annual Shakespeare in the Park production with the Bard's Much Ado About Nothing. Directed by Mark Dodge, artistic director and co-founder of Fury Theatre's outreach program, The Shakespeare All-Stars.

Sigh no more, ladies!
Much Ado is a playful romp of deceptive matchmaking, rumors and one of Shakespeare's most recognizable songs! Can Beatrice, Benedick, Hero and Claudio find everlasting happiness in Messina? Or will Jon John, the Prince's half brother stir up irreparable and malicious mischief? Directed full of life and action in the Fury Theatre style and staged on the green at historic Berger Park Cultural Center. The Bard's characters will sing, swoon and swagger and have audiences young and old singing "Hey nonny nonny!"

Guests are welcome to picnic in the park and enjoy Chicago's beautiful lakefront. At Sunday matinees, audience members are invited to don our Shakespearean costumes and props and take photos with the actors at our free photo booth.

Rain or Shine!
