Much Ado About Nothing, BOOK NOW oldvictheatre.com
James Earl Jones and Vanessa Redgrave play warring lovers Benedick and Beatrice in Shakespeare's timeless comedy Much Ado About Nothing, directed by Mark Rylance.
While young lovers Claudio and Hero have their forthcoming nuptials threatened by the resentful scheming of a Prince, marriage seems out of the question for reluctant lovers Beatrice and Benedick in this witty comedy about the never ending search for perfect love.
James Earl Jones and Vanessa Redgrave, who recently starred in Driving Miss Daisy both in the West End and on Broadway, reunite on The Old Vic stage to play these iconic roles for the first time.
Mark Rylance was Artistic Director of Shakespeare's Globe for 10 years, during this time he directed and performed in numerous productions. His recent acting credits include Richard III and Twelfth Night (Shakespeare's Globe and West End) and the critically acclaimed Jerusalem.

I have to interrupt my watching this series of an interview to say how much I appreciate Mark Rylance. Watching him makes me happy. There are certain people who are extraordinary in their own way, and I am gobsmacked to share the world with them while we're both alive. Mark Rylance is one of those people, for me.

Your question has niggled at my mind all day. It's a kind of wide-ranging collection of people. They'd include Thich Nhat Hanh (spiritual good sense), David Tennant (he always makes me smile unless he's playing a creep); Steven Fry (for his courage and wry wit); Russell Brand (his edginess wakes me up); Tim Minchin (an amazing blend of musicality, clever words and sense of story).These are all men, though, and I am sure there are women I would include. How about you?

Of course you could sort out the period problem best by not setting it in any period at all!
