Meanwhile, a malicious plot ensues as Don John and his minions attempt to come between the romance of Claudio and Hero. Watching all of the mayhem is a group of intrepid kids led by Dogberry, who together will protect the neighborhood and restore the peace. Come enjoy this production filled with love, comedy, music, and celebration!
