The Seoul Shakespeare Company (SSC) will present its annual main stage production, "Much Ado About Nothing," at the Theater Egg and Nucleus from May 21 to June 5.

Formed in 2011, the English-language theater company uses volunteers to produce high-quality performances of Shakespeare's works.

Directed by Michael Downey, there will be a talkback with the audience after the Sunday performances on May 22 and May 29.

"If you are bringing a student group to the show, we highly recommend attending on one of these days and participating in the talkback," the event organizer said.

Audiences are also invited to an opening night party immediately after the May 21 performance and a closing night party on the evening on June 5.

Considered to be one of Shakespeare's finest comedies, "Much Ado About Nothing" combines elements of robust hilarity with more serious meditations on honor and shame. The play is appropriate for all ages.

The show will be in English with Korean subtitles and runs for 2 hours and 25 minutes with a 15-minute intermission.

Tickets cost 20,000 won and can be reserved online (and paid at the door) through seoulshakespearecompany.org.

Block bookings are available for school groups and can be reserved at info@seoulshakespeare.com.

To get to Theater Egg and Nucleus leave exit 2 of Hyehwa Station. Turn left at the first road (at Dunkin Donuts) and walk for about a block. The theater will be on your left.

For additional information, contact sscticketing@gmail.com.
