Book Review: Much Ado About Nothing (Sixty Minute Shakespeare Series)
Summary: 5 Stars
Cass Foster's version of Shakespeare's popular comedy has all the right ingredients for staging "Much Ado" with high school students. He edits the text to eliminate much of the parallel speech while retaining the brightest of the lines. Shakespeare's many metaphors and images, though brilliant, can tend to confuse the average audience. Foster's script loses none of the important lines or images, and none of the audience members either, as he culls the text to focus on important action and interaction in the play. Also offering definitions of archaic Elizabethan words and ample space for director's notes, this script gets two thumbs up.
