MAINSTAGE

Much Ado About Nothing blooms in the open air, where Shakespeare’s sharp wit and joyful chaos ride the summer breeze.
Nestled beneath our tent and cradled by the mountains, the paly unfolds as daylight softens into dusk and the natural world becomes part of hte storytelling.
A vibrant exploration of love, mischief, and community, Much Ado is an immersive and joyful celebration that captures the heart of CMS’s summer season.
