How to get Much Ado About Nothing tickets as Tom Hiddleston and Hayley Atwell lead cast
Much Ado About Nothing marks one of two productions to be presented at Theatre Royal Drury Lane since 1957. With a stellar cast and you already know you're going to love the plot, here's how to secure tickets today.
"I do love nothing in the world so well as you: is not that strange?" we speak to the LW Theatres website as we secure tickets to Jamie Lloyd's adaptation of Much Ado About Nothing.
Much Ado about Nothing, starring Tom Hiddleston (currently portraying Loki in the Marvel Cinematic Universe) and Hayley Atwell (Agent Carter and Mission Impossible), is one of two productions to be performed at Theatre Royal Drury Lane since Peter Brook’s production of The Tempest starring John Gielgud back in 1957.
The second production will be The Tempest starring Golden Globe award winner Sigourney Weaver.
Hiddleston will be taking on the role of Benedick with Atwell playing Beatrice in William Shakespeare's timeless tale of wit.
Speaking about his upcoming role, the Crimson Peak actor said: "Working with Jamie Lloyd on Harold Pinter’s Betrayal was one of the most fulfilling and meaningful experiences of my performing life. I could not be more thrilled to have been given the opportunity to collaborate with him again, this time on one of Shakespeare’s most warm-hearted and joyful plays: Much Ado About Nothing."

Black Mirror star Atwell added: "I am thrilled to be joining Jamie Lloyd’s company for the third time in my career. His bold and electric direction, combined with the warmth and wit of one of Shakespeare’s most celebrated comedic duos is a truly exciting opportunity and one that I hope will delight our audiences."
Much Ado About Nothing will be on stage for a limited eight weeks only. With this in mind, we're sure you're eager to learn how to secure tickets.

What is the plot of Much Ado About Nothing?
There will be no spoilers here! But for those of you who would like a refresher of what the Shakespeare comedy is about, it is as follows:
Thought to have been written in 1598 and 1599, this comedy is set in Messina (a city in Italy), and focuses on two romances between Claudio and Hero and Benedick and Beatrice.
Both couples are deceived during the play, and trickery makes up a lot of the play's comedy and action.
But how will this particular adaptation fare on stage?
Well, if Lloyd has anything to say about it, it should be spectacular!
"To collaborate again with two of the greatest actors of their generation — Tom Hiddleston and Hayley Atwell — on one of Shakespeare’s wittiest and most tender comedies is a dream come true," he said.
