Kenny Leon, Danielle Brooks & Grantham Coleman On The Public's All-Black Production of 'Much Ado About Nothing'

'Tony Award-winner Kenny Leon ("A Raisin in the Sun") directs a bold new take on Shakespeare’s cherished comedy of romantic retribution and miscommunication, Much Ado About Nothing. In this modern production, we find the community of Messina celebrating a break from an ongoing war. But not all is peaceful amid the revelry, as old rivals engage in a battle of wits, unexpected foes plot revenge, and young lovers are caught in a tumultuous courtship – until love proves the ultimate trickster, and undoes them all. Leon and stars Danielle Brooks, Grantham Coleman took the BUILD Series stage to discuss the play.'
