The Shakesbeer sessions: Much Ado About Nothing at The Oaks

Where
118 Military Rd
Neutral Bay NSW 2089
Australia
When

Sunday 28 April from 6:30pm to 8:30pm

Bar’d Work is back. Australia’s favourite pub Shakespeare company goes back to its roots with the hilarious comedy Much Ado About Nothing, as part of the much-loved Shakesbeer Sessions.

Much Ado sees two of the Bard’s greatest character creations go head-to-head in a battle of wits. Leaping off the page and into the pub, Beatrice and Benedick attempt to save a wedding under threat by the villainous Don John.

The show delivers more romance than MAFS and better writing than Home & Away, performed by actors that will share a drink with the audience – before, during, and after the show!

Expect a fast, funny, and irreverent 90-minute take on Shakespeare’s classic comedy performed in a selection of Sydney’s most iconic venues, both familiar and new.

  • “Funniest night in a long time!”

  • “The best Shakespeare I’ve ever seen, and I’ve seen a lot!”

  • “Thoroughly entertaining and very funny. If only Shakespeare had been this much fun at school, I might have paid more attention.”

  • “It was truly brilliant. I loved every second of it. Imaginative, innovative, full of music, surprises and naughtiness!”

  • “Hilarious night. Smiled and laughed until it hurt.”
