Hero Theatre Presents Nothing, Nothing
Hero Theatre presents the World Premiere of Nothing, Nothing written by Amina Henry and directed by Elisa Bocanegra.
A celebration of joy, romance, and community, NOTHING, NOTHING is a site-specific adaptation of Shakespeare's Much Ado About Nothing set and performed entirely in a Baptist church! This adaptation puts the bonds of love, family, and faith to the test in a hilarious comedy of errors.
Starring Nedra Snipes as Beatrice Clinton Lowe as Benny Stacy Highsmith as Leona Cary Thompson as Pastor Don Juan Joseph Henderson as Claudio Angie Green as Hero Georgina Elizabeth Okon as Sister Connie Tamika Simpkins as Sister Betty
Like Amina Henry's previous commission for Hero Theatre, TROY (2019), this commission is part of a special partnership with the Downtown Women's Center and the Alexandria House. Performances will be at the Friendship Baptist Church, a historic Black church in Pasadena where Martin Luther King Jr. once spoke.
**Special show prologue presented by one of the cast members is happening at 2pm prior to the matinees. Optional attendance. Come if you'd like to learn more about the play!
