ABOUT:
Too much time and too much wine finds a group of friends and an unlucky housekeeper trying to pass the time at an 1800s lake house. An ad hoc performance of Shakespeare’s Much Ado About Nothing keeps the estate lively as a summer evening grows dark. Together they discover love, laughs, and timing as the product of their boredom becomes a moving performance that reminds us all: the heart wants what it wants.
All performances are offered for FREE (donations accepted at intermission), or reserve a chair or blanket in advance. New for 2021 are premium boxes of 2 reserved zero-gravity chairs for $45, and basic boxes with a reserved ATC logo blanket (that you can keep after the show!) for $25. Reserve your boxes here.
