RSC Shakespeare: Much Ado About Nothing

　　《無事生非》是莎翁作品中的一部浪漫喜劇，在1598年首次上演。描寫溫柔單純的新娘希羅，因小人散佈謠言，使得她在婚禮當天，在神聖的教堂聖殿下，遭到未婚夫的當眾羞辱，使她傷心欲絕；另外，希羅的好友琵特麗絲與裴尼狄克這對怨偶，經過一番鬥智與衝突後，在神父的妙計之下，卻互相體諒而相愛，最後終於結成佳偶。

Review

　　Invigorating, radical and original … I look forward to using it at my desk and perhaps in my classroom over many years, enjoying Jonathan Bate's perceptive comments, trusting Eric Rasmussen's textual scholarship.' – Professor Peter Holland, Times Literary Supplement
