Love’s Labour’s Lost

WRITTEN BY WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE
DIRECTED BY DONNA DEVLIN

ONE NIGHT ONLY! CLOSING NIGHT CELEBRATION SATURDAY-AUGUST 24TH

In Love’s Labour’s Lost, the King of Navarre and his schoolmate are ripe for an education in love from the Princess of France and her lady in waiting. Joining the lovers is a brilliantly goofy troupe of clowns, including the love-warrior Don Armado and the lust-sick rogue Costard, who ardently pursue the affections of a winsome country maid — and who perform an unforgettable pageant for the royals. Written around the same time as Romeo and Juliet and A Midsummer Night’s Dream, this giddy and extravagant romantic comedy is Shakespeare’s most exuberant wordfest — a joyful carnival of love, loss, and hope.
