5 Star Review for Andrew Hislop in Much Ado About Nothing

Thats right, the Merely Theatre and Andrew Hislop have received 5 Star Reviews for their touring show Much Ado About Nothing.

Check out some of the quotes from Please Mind The Blog:

“Andrew Hislop is an authoritative, but kindly, Leonato”

“My verdict? A comic triumph that welcomes everyone to Messina, with some fun musical choices amongst the Shakespeare – the performances from the cast of six are vibrant & full of energy.

Rating: 5*”

“This production is another comic triumph for Merely Theatre. Intent on ensuring the audience feels included, the cast acknowledge our presence by addressing their speech in our direction, or even incorporating individuals in small ways by making them part of the Prince’s Watch. Under Abigail Anderson’s direction, everyone is there in Messina for a couple of hours ”
