LINCOLN SQUARE — Claudio is in love with Hero, but Don Jon tricks him into thinking she's cheating on him. Hero fakes her death to prove her innocence and hijinks ensue.

If you want to know how this story ends, catch Midsommar Flight's production of Shakespeare's "Much Ado About Nothing" this weekend in Gross Park, 2708 W. Lawrence Ave.

The free shows are scheduled for 6 p.m. Saturday and 2 p.m. Sunday, with live music a half hour before each performance.

Bring a blanket or lawn chairs, pack a picnic and settle in for one the Bard's finest comedies.

Additional performances of the play will take place in Gross Park at 6 p.m. Aug. 9 and 2 p.m. Aug. 10.
