Much Ado About Nothing is perhaps Shakespeare’s most loved romantic comedy, in turns witty, hilarious, dark and touching. This adaptation by the Playhouse Company is set during the Second World War, where a group of servicemen in need of some R&R (romance and recuperation) stay at a country manor house populated by women who have discovered a newfound independence.
Join us for a relax read-through of our adapted script, meet the production team, and ask any questions about the play or production.
Audition dates will be 10th and 17th June, 7.30pm at the Playhouse.

We understand that sticking to Mondays for read-throughs and auditions has created some limitation on who could attend (apologies! We did try to vary the nights, but this was not possible in the end), and so we are ready to accept video auditions if this is needed. Please get in touch promptly with either Toby or Jaz, or message the company here on fb with any queries. Video auditions will need to be submitted on or before the final audition date of 17th June please.
The show will be staged in the week beginning 3rd February 2025 (planning on including a Saturday matinee) and rehearsal commitment will be from September 2024 – February 2025 (hoping for a good break for Christmas!) with rehearsal nights to be chosen when we have the cast in place.
