The Shakesbeer Sessions: Much Ado About Nothing

Shakespeare as he intended...drunk.

Fast, funny and irreverent Shakespeare performed in your local pub. This troupe of actors will have you dying with laughter, singing along with pub classics, and most importantly, doing something you never thought you'd do. Love Shakespeare.

Bar'd Work's first production, the famous comedy Much Ado About Nothing, is part of the inaugural Shakesbeer Sessions. Look forward to a night of short, sharp Shakespeare as two of his greatest 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. More romance than The Bachelor, better writing than Home & Away, and actors that will share a drink with you (before, after, and during).

Bar'd Work are proud to be presenting this performance at Chippendale's most iconic pub.
