Hamish Linklater and Tony® nominee Lily Rabe return to the Park this summer as the wise-cracking, would-be lovers Beatrice and Benedick in the beloved romantic comedy MUCH ADO ABOUT NOTHING. Central Park becomes sun-drenched Sicily at the turn of the last century, where the heat of summer ignites the fevered passions of lovesick ladies in corsets and pining gentlemen spying from the verandah. Three-time Tony winner Jack O’Brien directs this delightful skirmish of wit between two self-declared bachelors tricked by their mischief-making friends into falling in love against their will and in spite of their own hearts.

Meddling fairies, star-crossed lovers and bumbling tradesmen delight in Shakespeare’s beloved comedy. Oberon, King of the Fairies, is upset with his Queen Titania and he commands Puck to produce a powerful nectar that causes love at first sight. The mischievous sprite arranges for Titania to fall for Bottom, a simple weaver (now transformed into an ass) while entangling the affections of four runaway lovers.
Bard’s silver anniversary season revisits the hugely popular 2006 production of Dream, with Dean Paul Gibson back to direct.
