At the legendary Hotel Messina on the Italian Riviera, the owner’s daughter falls for a dashing young soldier. However, not all the guests are in the mood for love, and a string of deceptions soon surrounds not only the young couple, but also the steadfastly single Beatrice and Benedick. Katherine Parkinson (The IT Crowd) and John Heffernan (Dracula) lead the cast in Shakespeare’s comedy of sun, sea, and mistaken identity.
