  3. Funk it Up About Nothin'


A fresh urban take on a story as old skool as love itself, and complete with a live DJ, B*Boys and girls, MC’s and divas, Funk It Up About Nothin’ is more than a rom-com street party with bangin’ bass. It's an outrageous “hip-hoptation” based on the Bard’s classic comedy Much Ado About Nothing. Whether you’re looking for a great night of hip hop or a new way to think about Shakespeare, Funk It Up About Nothin’ delivers an intense, high energy story like no other.



Ages: Recommended for mature audiences (contains adult language)
