WITS chats Shakepeare's "Much Ado About Nothing"

Rebecca, Tori, and special guest, Louise, return to chat about the 1993 Kenneth Branaugh and 2013 Josh Whedon productions of Shakespeare's "Much Ado About Nothing." We delve into some character analysis, performance comparisons, and Shakespearean themes. We discuss gender dynamics, visual aesthetics of the adaptations, and identify our spotlight scenes and shining stars. And, we have a lot of fun.MusicApache Rock Instrumental | by Sound Atelier; licensed from JamendoRemember the way | Mid-Air Machine | licensed under a Attribution-ShareAlike 4.0 International License at Free Music ArchiveSound EffectsRecord Scratch: Sound Effect free on PixabayOrchestral win | Sound Effect by u_it78ck90s3 from PixabayCinematic Logo-DHcz | Sound Effect by Dzianis Honczarow from PixabaySourcesBBC News | Letter Reveals Shakespeare Did Not Abandon His WifeHey nonny nonny – Shakespeare NerdCliff's Notes | Much Ado About NothingMuch Ado About Nothing movie review (1993) | Roger EbertDen of Geek | Why Did Joss Whedon Choose Much Ado About NothingBackstage | Making Joss Whedon's Much Ado About Nothing4 changes Joss Whedon made to Shakespeare's Much Ado About Nothing | The WeekThe battle of two ‘Much Ado About Nothing’ films – Seven Inches of Your TimeMuch Ado About Nothing movie review (2013) | Roger EbertMuch Ado About Nothing - Entire Play | Folger Shakespeare Library
