Description: Hey, are we a Shakespeare podcast now? Â Don't tempt Georgia!!
We're back with a discussion of one of our favorite Shakespeare adaptations, Kenneth Branagh's 1993 Much Ado About Nothing.  Tune in to hear our thoughts on how Shakespeare should be taught (irreverently, aloud, and in whatever accent you choose), Kenneth Branagh's many smart choices (as both actor and director), Denzel Washington’s amazing turn as Don Pedro, Emma Thompson’s charming and sharp Beatrice, Shakespeare's infinite adaptability, and meaningfulness that transcends time and place.
