MUCH ADO ABOUT NOTHING to Tour Long Island Free This Summer with EastLine Theatre
Director Nicole Savin helms the Sicilian-set comedy, featuring original music by John Brautigam.
EastLine Theatre will launch their sixth annual free summer tour at the Hicksville Library on June 13th with Shakespeare's comedy, Much Ado About Nothing. Set in sun-drenched Sicily, the play features some of Shakespeare's most beloved characters: sparring lovers Beatrice and Benedick, and the bumbling police constable, Dogberry.
"It is a delight to bring audiences Shakespeare's sharpest comedy," says director Nicole Savin, "It's a perfect summertime play - about love in bloom after years at war. I hope Long Islanders will find our beautiful parks and libraries similarly in bloom." Featuring original music by John Brautigam, the production will run through July 26th at a variety of Long Island locations.
