Edited, introduced and annotated by Cedric Watts, Research Professor of English, University of Sussex, "Much Ado About Nothing" has long been celebrated as one of Shakespeare's most popular comedies. The central relationship, between Benedick and Beatrice, is wittily combative until love prevails. Broader comedy is provided by Dogberry, Verges and the watchmen.
The drama ranges between the destructively sinister and the lyrically romantic, giving the whole a complex and sometimes problematic character.
