It's another busy weekend on the Calgary arts and entertainment scene, so here are some picks we've rounded up for you.

Let's start with one of Shakespeare's most popular comedies, Much Ado About Nothing.

It's been staged around the world. It's also been adapted for the big screen — you may remember the version in the 1990s directed by Kenneth Branagh featuring Emma Thompson and Denzel Washington, and then more recently Joss Whedon pulled together a cast of his regulars including Nathan Fillion and Clark Gregg. They even filmed the movie in Whedon's home.

The Shakespeare Company with the support of Hit & Myth Productions present the much-loved play until June 2 at the Vertigo Theatre.
