Beatrice and Benedict

McCaw Hall
321 Mercer Street Seattle

Experience Seattle's citywide Shakespeare celebration with the one-of-a-kind theatrical hybrid, Beatrice & Benedict. Overheard confessions, unfortunate reactions, tender reconciliations and plenty of witty banter glide on a warm breeze of masterful orchestration. In this novel adaptation of Shakespeare's lively comedy Much Ado About Nothing, Hector Berlioz's exuberant opera score is paired with sung and spoken English text taken directly from the Bard's own pen. Don't miss this exciting Seattle Opera premiere at McCaw Hall.
