Much Ado About Nothing: Additional Resources

Here are some resources to help guide your way into Much Ado About Nothing:

• Resources, character map, and infographic from Course Hero.
• See a synopsis of the play from the Shakespeare Birthplace Trust or Overly Sarcastic Productions.
• In many areas, the recent Shakespeare in the Park production of Much Ado About Nothing, starring Danielle Brooks, is available on PBS.
• A full production, from the Texas Shakespeare Festival, is on YouTube.
• A modern BBC re-imagining of Much Ado, from 2005, is available on YouTube. (Note: it’s based on Shakespeare’s story, but does not feature his words.)
• The Show Must Go Online performed the play just last week.
• Too odd not to include: a 1940 Dinky Duck cartoon entitled “Much Ado About Nothing.”

Thanks for Dan Hainsworth for letting us use his Shakespeare icons, as shown above right.
