Events Description
Enter Hero. An elegant lady and daughter of Leonato. She is set to marry the dashing Claudio until dastardly Don John fools both men into believing that Hero has been unfaithful. Claudio then rejects her and Leonato wishes her dead. Enter Benedick. A war hero with a wit as sharp as his sword. Across the church stands his most hated rival. Not a soldier of battle but the Lady Beatrice whose tongue is sharper than any steel. And she wants his blood for scorning her love the last time they met. The Italian court, and our audience, will watch in delight as Beatrice and Benedick sting and slice each other with their words, never guessing who will win.
Shakespeare continues to ask vital questions in this piece regarding gender, marriage and deception and perhaps the most important question of all is whether our female protagonists Beatrice and Hero can become or remain equal players in their own romantic destiny.
