Much Ado About Nothing - Vanessa Redgrave

Saturday I went to see Much Ado About Nothing at The Old Vic,
with Vanessa Redgrave and James Earl Jones.

They set the play during the 40s, from the costume I suggest at the time of the WWII.

I really like it because of the costume, and the song and instrument add in the play, such as ukulele and harmonica. I did enjoyed the diversity of the actors, from the old grandpa dancing, to the boyscout who hide to smoke cigarette but catches the villain.
And of course Vanessa was amazing !
Even though, I didn't understand everything, I'm glad I'm building up my Shakespeare Knowledge.

 Young Vanessa.
