Discussion
Opening at the West Village Theatre in Calgary June 19 through June 28, Full Circle Theatre presents Much Ado About Nothing. While the show has closed prior to the release of this episode, it was in fact recorded just as the show was beginning. Kyle sits down with producer and costumer Erin Weir to discuss the production's development and what Much Ado About Nothing's history and meaning brings to the stage even before Full Circle Theatre presents it. This is the first part of a two stage interview.
About the Show: In this witty, whip-smart tale of love, loyalty, and lies, Beatrice and Benedick find themselves caught in a battle of barbs, while Hero and Claudio’s picture-perfect romance threatens to unravel. Trust—both earned and broken—is at the heart of it all. Set in a world just beyond war’s end, this production explores what happens when the fighting stops but the real emotional stakes begin. Tension simmers beneath every joke, secret, and stolen glance, as friendships, reputations, and relationships are put to the test. Directed by longtime collaborator John Knight, and featuring Riverona alumni Megan Baldrey and CJ Gordon as Beatrice and Benedick, this Much Ado blends sharp comedy with a darker edge—revealing just how much trust can cost us. This production is presented in association with The Shakespeare Company, Calgary’s lean and mean classical theatre company, committed to bold, innovative approaches to the Bard’s work
