Much Ado About Nothing
By William Shakespeare
Set against the vibrant backdrop of mid-century New Orleans, this reimagining of Shakespeare’s Much Ado About Nothing blends jazz, Southern charm, and lively French Quarter culture. Returning from military service, Claudio falls quickly for Hero, while the sharp-tongued Beatrice and witty Benedick spar amidst iconic architecture and elegant Garden District gatherings. As rumors, misunderstandings, and deception threaten young love, the city’s warmth, music, and resilient spirit help guide the characters toward truth, reconciliation, and romance. This fresh setting highlights the play’s themes of love, reputation, and second chances through the color and energy of a uniquely American era.
All performances will be in the Bleha Performing Arts Center on the Main Campus in Auburn.
Tickets: General Admission $7, Students $5, GRC Students (with ID) Free
