When

Sunday 28 April 2024 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.
