Must include a Constable Dogberry reference. And Ms. Emma Thompson?

Much Ado About Nothing is a fine example of this Shakespearean genre of bromantic comedy, as Don John reveals.” Page 132.

Rousing, laugh out loud funny show.

Alt ShakespeareThere’s a special note, a tiny comedic piece within the play, Dogberry and his watch that bumbles us to the happy conclusion? As noted before, Micheal Keaton fresh from his ‘Beetlejuice’ role, played it the best, and set a standard I had yet to see equaled. Done admirably, but always a hollow ape of the that magic film version. At Winedale, the returning actor who had the role? He owned it. Made it his own. With nary a hint of film, or outside antics, he did it better than I’ve seen in very long time, if ever. Live.

It’s not the whole play, and just a small scene, but watching that particular actor do it, and do so well with it, he just took it over. Fitting end to wonder ours comedic cycle.
