Those who missed the wildly successful 3-week run of Shakespeare Orange County's production of Much Ado About Nothing this past August will get one more chance when Phantom Projects brings back the original creative team to re-mount their production of William Shakespeare's MUCH ADO ABOUT NOTHING. The one-day-only performance features a 10AM and 7pm performance on November 8th at La Mirada Theatre for the Performing Arts. This production features Michael Nehring and Evelyn Carol Case as Benedick and Beatrice. SOC's Founding Artistic Director Thomas F. Bradac directs.
