Mazda brings a unique concept to a beloved Shakespeare piece. He keeps it down and dirty with a style we call Trash Period. Influenced by the hierarchies that one finds among the dispossessed, homeless and street dwellers, Mazda's Much Ado takes us to a street strewn with trash where the gentle Leonato's cardboard dwelling is the best on the street, where everyday objects are casually thrown away. With echoes of the absurdist, pinpoint sharp and reverent language, and comedy, pathos and humor ably assisted by clown technique Mazda’s Trash Period Much Ado is not to be missed.
