SYNOPSIS: The women of Messina’s USO, headed by Leonora (mother of Hero and aunt of Beatrice) are abuzz with the news that the Colonel Don Pedro and his officers are returning from the war! Claudio, a young lieutenant, falls in love with Hero and their marriage is agreed upon while Beatrice and Benedick (a captain) despise love and engage in comic banter. Don Pedro and Leonora plot to make them fall in love with each other, by a trick in which Benedick will overhear his friends talking of Beatrice’s supposed secret love for him, and vice versa. Meanwhile Don John, the prince’s misanthropic illegitimate brother, contrives a more malicious plot: Claudio is led to believe that he has witnessed Hero in a compromising situation on the night before her wedding day – in fact it is her maid Margaret with Borachio, Don John’s henchman. Hijinks and chaos ensue, and in the end justice is served!
