The unmasking ceremony was a party where everybody was pretending being mistaken for  other people.  In the play much Ado About Nothing, we see famous examples who played somebody's personalities or characters. Margaret who is mistaken Hero, Beatrice  was looking for Benedick's mask, but Benedick was masked man who turns out to be Benedick himself. He wanted Beatrice and he wanted to appear as a real life in the play, he was in love Beatrice and he wanted to show that in the play.  They were unmasked, because they wanted to conserve their identities in certain way.  They love each other,so they didn't pretend other character just being  themselves.

Also Hero has symbolically die and be reborn, pure again for Claudio to marry her a second time . Hero's false death is a symbol to convince and take out the rumors in Claudio that it is a social ritual to cleanse her name as person and her infamy.

After everything was cleared and Claudio believed  Hero's innocence, everybody was happy and its play had a "happy ending"  both both couples, Hero recovered her dignity and reputation and Benedick and Beatrice declared their love.

  1. Do you think that Claudio was unmasked? If so, how?

    I am not sure what you mean by "Beatrice was looking for Benedick's mask, but Benedick was masked man who turns out to be Benedick himself."--could you rephrase?
