(a) the layout is a bit odd here, but more importantly (b) this isn't the overture I recognise... Cg2p0B0u8m (talk) 22:34, 16 July 2010 (UTC)Reply

"Based closely..."

edit

...on Much Ado as the lead currently says. Is it? Shakespeare's two main sub plots – the scheming of Don John and the chilling "kill Claudio" plot are not in evidence, and Somarone is not based closely – or indeed at all – on Dogberry and Verges (except, possibly, that he is as unfunny as they are). Essentially, Berlioz took the Beatrice and Benedick bits of Much Ado and left the rest. I think "loosely based" would be safer – or why not dispense with the adverb altogether? – Tim riley (talk) 14:40, 7 September 2010 (UTC)Reply

Premier's Theater

edit

I noticed that by clicking "Theater der Stadt" I was sent to Leipzig instead of the theatre that should be in Baden-Baden (as stated). I'm removing the link until someone links it directly to the correct one. Miguel Maduro-Dias (talk) 23:10, 16 June 2014 (UTC)Reply
