This play really is much ado about nothing because if everyone involved (especially my fainting girl Hero) took a deep breath and/or stopped slut-shaming poor Hero, there would have been significantly less drama.

Also, why is it always the Friars who come up with the idea to fake someone‘s death in Shakespeare plays? Why is that their go-to plan?

Regardless of that this play is hilarious and still worth reading 425 years after its writing date.
