Goodly Creatures Theatre will perform William Shakespeare's MUCH ADO ABOUT NOTHING. Join us for a night of comedy and culture in the park! In Shakespeare’s wittiest and wildest rom-com, Beatrice and Benedick are ferociously independent individuals who have steadfastly avoided sharing their lives with anyone but themselves… until now. Despite their best efforts to remain single, falling for one another is inevitable.
Parking is available at the Kane County Government Center, 719 Batavia Ave. Follow the trail north and cross the bridge across the Fox River to Island Park. Parking is also available in downtown Geneva public parking lots.
