I feel that when designing and producing a production, it is important to look at other performances and learn from their productions. Therefore, below I have provided a link to a youtube video of a performance in Vermont that was done with a minimalistic set and on a thrust stage. This video shows that you do not need an elaborate set to have a good production of this show. Also, the costumes in this particular production are simple. They reflect the time period of the piece, but they are not too elaborate. I feel that Much Ado About Nothing is better off with simple costumes because the characters themselves are really big and out there. They do not need crazy costumes to bring their personalities across to the audience.
