The Shakespeare Factory Players will be presenting “Much Ado About Nothing” this upcoming Saturday, September 4th at Millard Cooper Park in Sykesville. It’s a comedy about two sets of lovers (to simplify a tad), and about 400 years old to boot (the comedy, not the lovers), older even than some of the trees in the park, so you may not get all the jokes, but you’ll probably get the fun.
The Shakespeare Factory is a local outfit, and sometimes you’ll see them practicing around Sykesville and occasionally stabbing one another with their swords.
Now, if you want a bit more of a plot summary, you can try this, and there was a film once, back in 1993, so here’s some of that to whet your appetite.
And if you’re wondering who Shakespeare is, well never mind, but here’s a picture from our archives.
