"Much Ado About Nothing" is the story of Leonato, an Italian nobleman, his daughter, Hero, and his niece, Beatrice.
Following the war, Leonato welcomes into his house Don Pedro, his good friend; fellow soldiers of Don Pedro, Claudio and Benedick; as well as Don Pedro's illegitimate brother, Don John.
The dashing young Claudio falls for Hero, the beautiful daughter of Leonato.
Benedick, who insists that he will never get married, soon finds himself constantly quarreling with sharp-tongued Beatrice, Hero's beautiful cousin.
Quickly amorous relations develop between Claudio and Hero and later between Benedick and Beatrice.
As wedding plans are being made for Claudio and Hero, Don John tricks Claudio into believing that Hero has been unfaithful. The wedding bliss is thus interrupted until the truth can be discovered.
Finally a grand masquerade ball provides the setting for an amusing muddle of mistaken identities.
True love triumphs at last for Claudio and Hero and also for Beatrice and Benedick when both couples are united at the end.
"Much Ado About Nothing" touches on romance, humor, comedy, and drama.
A true masterpiece indeed!
"Much Ado About Nothing" is arguably the best comedy play of Shakespeare.
