The Shakesbeer sessions: Much Ado About Nothing at The Oaks

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.
