In volume 2's fifth episode, Merry and Deah explore queer subtext and compulsory heterosexuality in various adaptations of Shakespeare's comedy 'Much Ado About Nothing'. This episode is to be the first of our "Shakesqueer" miniseries, where we hope to discuss LGBT subtext throughout the playwright's work. Adaptations focused on in this episode are The Public's Much Ado About Nothing (2019) starring Danielle Brooks and Grantham Coleman, Josie Rourke's 2011 stage production with Catherine Tate and David Tennant, and the 1993 film with Emma Thompson, Denzel Washington, and Keanu Reeves.
