National Players Holds Free Encore Presentation of MUCH ADO ABOUT NOTHING at Olney Theatre Center 9/19
There is one final chance to enjoy free Shakespeare at Olney Theatre Center when National Players presents an encore performance of Much Ado About Nothing.
Much Ado About Nothing plays the Historic Stage on Saturday, September 19, at 8:00 p.m. This encore performance is indoors and free to the public. Reservations are strongly recommended, as seating is first come, first served. For reservations or more information, please call Olney's Box Office at 301.924.3400.
Much Ado About Nothing tells a story of the battle of the sexes. Old adversaries Beatrice and Benedick wage their merry war of witty insults while Benedick's friend Claudio is deceived into thinking that his beloved Hero has betrayed him. Potential tragedy yields to high comedy, however, as the lexically challenged Constable Dogberry stumbles upon the truth.
Much Ado About Nothing is directed by Olney's Associate Artistic Director, Clay Hopper. He most recently directed Call of the Wild on the Olney Mainstage. In addition, he has been directing for National Players and Olney's Summer Shakespeare Festival since 2003. In 2002, he founded and produced a new play series called New Works/After Hours at Lincoln Center Institute's Clarke Studio Theatre.
Since 1990, Olney Theatre Center's National Players has produced Summer Shakespeare, with the purpose of bringing plays of a classical nature to regional audiences in outdoor venues. The Summer Shakespeare Festival develops a new appreciation for "The Bard" by presenting classical dramas and comedies to families in a festival setting.
Please call 301.924.3400 or visit olneytheatre.org for reservations; seating is on a first come, first served basis.
Olney Theatre Center is located at 2001 Olney-Sandy Spring Road, Olney, Maryland 20832. Located just north of Washington, DC, the theater sits 1¼ mile from the intersection of Olney-Sandy Spring Road (Route 108) and Georgia Avenue (Route 97). Parking is free.
