While some notions of Shakespeare’s time are a thing of the past (or should be), most of his sentiments and lessons are timeless. The act of falling in love should be simple, but humans tend to overcomplicate it as we do many things. Are Beatrice and Benedick so afraid of rejection that they each spurn the other, all while concealing their growing affections?
Marian is the Robin Hood for a new day and age, and the hilarious yet monumental story jumps off the stage thanks to the stellar re-contextualization. This production aimed its arrow and hit it right on the bullseye in the strength of its performances and story.
Menglekoch as Beatrice, is someone you’d want to hang out with. She has earned social respect and is quite magnetic, despite being unmarried. Barnes’ Benedick is also witty, and he has the comedic skills to get the audience rolling. (The barrel scenes are especially funny.)
