Atin Arbus, who has directed critically acclaimed
productions of Othello, Macbeth and The Taming of the
Shrew for Theater for a New Audience stages
Shakespeare's romantic comedy Much Ado About Nothing in
which two former lovers grudgingly fall in love and do their
best not to! Ms. Arbus balances the play's wit and exuberant
humor with love that is composed of desire and distrust
warmth and anger.
Set in early 20th Century Sicily with original music by Michael
Friedman, victorious soldiers return from war and set their
sights on the peacetime pleasures of clever banter and
romance. But, when false information leads one proud
nobleman to cruelly denounce his beloved on their wedding
day, the verbal sparring flames into private warfare.
As Beatrice and Benedick, Maggie Siff (brilliant as Kate last
season in Shrew) and Jonathan Cake (Jason in Medea opposite
Fiona Shaw) collide in a vivid dance of contrasts. One is
British, the other American, one sophisticated, the other
rough-edged—two former lovers whose intelligence and
obstinacy are perfectly matched.
