Actor Tom Hiddleston joins Morning Joe with co-star Hayley Atwell and director Jamie Lloyd to discuss their upcoming Broadway production of Shakespeare’s “Much Ado About Nothing.” Hiddleston says the play, an energy-filled show, is “one of Shakespeare’s warmest, funniest and most deeply romantic comedies.”
Actors Tom Hiddleston and Hayley Atwell are set to take the stage this fall on Broadway in Shakespeare’s classic comedy ‘Much Ado About Nothing.’ The production, directed by Tony Award winner Jamie Lloyd, reimagines the play as a modern dance party. The show’s actors and director join Morning Joe to discuss bringing the production from London’s West End to New York’s Broadway for a limited 10-week engagement.
