“Some Cupid kills with arrows, some with traps.”

That’s a phrase from William Shakepeare’s “Much Ado About Nothing,” which none other than the Royal Shakespeare Company describes as the Bard’s “original rom-com.”

Here in the Chattanooga area, Scenic City Shakespeare is now presenting the play at Greenway Farm Park in Hixson - Fridays and Saturdays at 7 PM - through Saturday, June 14th.

Emma Collins is co-founder of Scenic City Shakespeare and the director of “Much Ado About Nothing.”

Jacob Moore plays Benedick.
