Synopsis
What if Much Ado About Nothing was set in the present day and everyone was gay? This totally-modern adaptation of Much Ado About Nothing (no Shakespeare words, we promise!) is set at a prestigious university where the battlefield has become the soccer field. Bea and Ben match wits while Claudia and Hera fall in love and a jealous Jonathan watches from the sidelines. Will everyone get their happily ever after? Come have a drink with us at Cake Cabaret and find out! (fringetoronto.com)
