It is largely made up of paper documents (many are photocopies), but also holds recordings and merchandise related to individual productions. Original items (i.e. not photocopies) are marked as such in the listing.

  • MUCH ADO ABOUT NOTHING Film Synopsis
    MUCH ADO ABOUT NOTHING Film Synopsis The hot Italian sun beats down on a beautiful villa set in the idyllic Tuscan countryside. Leonato, governor of Messina (RICHARD BRIERS), and the women of his household sprawl on the hillside relishing the summer heat. Suddenly, Don Pedro, Prince of Arragon (DENZEL WASHINGTON) and his victorious army are seen approaching in the distance, returning from the wars. As the horses gallop towards the country estate, the women rush back to the house, and pandemonium reigns as they excitedly get themselves ready to meet the returning heroes. The men are warmly welcomed as they emerge through the archways of the villa, and seductive glances are exchanged. The wars are over. All can now devote themselves to a period of rest, revelry and match-making. Don Pedro’s close companions are the two lords Claudio (ROBERT SEAN LEONARD) and Benedick (KENNETH BRANAGH). Both men find themselves drawn into romance during their stay in Leonato ‘s household. Benedick is a proud and confirmed bachelor, famously engaged in a constant -war of wits with Leonato's niece, the strong-willed Beatrice (EMMA THOMPSON). But their spirited parrying of words and vigorous skirmishes of wit hide a deeper attraction. Leonato ‘s daughter, the lovely and innocent Hero (KATE BECKINSALE) is wooed by the young lord Claudio, only to experience despair when Claudio is deceived into thinking she has betrayed him on the very eve of their wedding. At the heart of the mayhem is the evil Don John (KEANU REEVES), Don Pedro’s bastard brother, who creates the intrigue because of his jealousy of Don Pedro.
