Pieter Performance Space (Los Angeles, CA)

For its inaugural staging, unMasqued sets William Shakespeare’s Much Ado About Nothing in a small concert venue following the love, deceit and struggle of a bluegrass-folk band. This clever romantic comedy spotlights an all-out battle of the sexes, as a war of wit and words breaks out between Benedick and the acid-tongued Beatrice, whose romance-averse sparring reveals an undeniable attraction. Shakespeare was at the height of his comedic powers when he created this perfectly mismatched couple whose dialogue ricochets with wit and sizzles with sexual tension. Sparks fly when a “lover’s trap” is set for these two long-time romantic adversaries, and the consequences are anything but predictable.
