But Young lovers Claudio and Hero, and sparring singletons Beatrice and Benedick, soon discover that all is not as it seems in their beautiful surrounds as they become entangled in a series of mischievous games, pranks and plots.
  • Globe Associate Artistic Director Sean Holmes directs this Elizabethan-dress production.
