Shakespeare comedy screening at Eye Cinema Shakespeare comedy screening at Eye Cinema

The city’s Eye Cinema is hosting a screening of a new production of Shakespeare’s Much Ado About Nothing next Thursday, September 8, at 7pm.

It’s being broadcast from London as part of the National Theatre Live and follows the award-winning success of the company’s Romeo and Juliet, Twelfth Night and Antony and Cleopatra.

Like them it’s directed by Simon Godwin while Katherine Parkinson (The IT Crowd) and John Heffernan (Dracula) lead the cast in this romantic comedy of sun, sea and mistaken identity.

The legendary, family-run Hotel Messina on the Italian Riviera has been visited by artists, celebrities, and royalty. But when the owner’s daughter weds a dashing young soldier, not all guests are in the mood for love. A string of scandalous deceptions soon surround not only the young couple, but also the adamantly single Beatrice and Benedick.

Tickets for Much Ado About Nothing can be booked online on www.eyecinema.ie or at the box office.
