Shakespeare comedy at The Dukes
Northern Broadsides make a welcome return to the Lancaster theatre from March 5-9 with Much Ado About Nothing and the city’s very own imitating the dog will perform Heart of Darkness from March 19-23.
Told in true Northern Broadsides style, this version of the romantic comedy Much Ado About Nothing is set just after World War Two as returning soldiers swap the battlefield for love, masked balls and much-needed laughter.

What emerges is a tale for our time.
