Wiele hałasu o nic

William Shakespeare

Wiele hałasu o nic to historia dwójki młodych zakochanych, którzy przeżywają swoją pierwszą miłość. Tytuł odnosi się do zachowania młodych kochanków, którzy w euforii potrafią śmiać się, płakać, krzyczeć i jęczeć na zmianę, ponieważ uczucie to jest dla nich tak ważne. Dla dojrzałej i doświadczonej osoby zachowanie kochanków może być właśnie wielkim hałasem o nic. Ten utwór Szekspira jest uważany za jedną z najśmieszniejszych, a zarazem najbardziej błyskotliwą z komedii.
