Witty wars of words are waged and hearts turn on a dime in Shakespeare's classic romantic comedy rolling two different love stories into one buoyantly bumpy ride to the altar.

Benedick and Beatrice have everything in common. They're both single. They're both smart. They're both funny. They also both hate marriage, not to mention each other. But who ever let that stand in the way of love? With its stellar cast, The Freewill Shakespeare Festival returns to Hawrelak Park with Shakespeare's timeless comedy that asks how far we'll go for love, and how much we'll forgive.
