Summary

In this popular Shakespearean comedy of society and romance, readers find two couples falling in love despite the scheming of the embittered Don John and the comic incompetence of Dogberry. This romantic comedy is one of Shakespeare's most enduring and exhilirating plays, featuring the romantic leads, Claudio and Hero, and their comic counterparts, Benedick and Beatrice. Unlike Vieceli's critically acclaimed Hamlet, which was set in a futuristic cyberworld, Much Ado About Nothing is set between 1815-1871 during Il Risorgimento (Italian Unification)
