About This Production
Self-denial is in fashion at the court of Navarre where a young King and three of his courtiers solemnly forswear all pleasures in favor of serious study. But the Princess of France and her all-too-lovely entourage have other ideas. The men soon find that love’s labor complicates and conquers all things in Shakespeare’s boisterous romantic comedy about love and marriage.
Critic and Audience Reviews
-Audience FeedbackFantastic actors and an absolutely hilarious interpretation.
-Audience FeedbackTHE BEST play I have seen at the Orlando Shakes this season. The cast brings the play to life with marvelous characters and great humor. I am sure this production would be understood and enjoyed by all…even by those unfamiliar with the play.
-Audience FeedbackSheer delight. A comic masterpiece with an incredible ensemble of over the top talented actors.
-Audience FeedbackNicely conceived, directed and acted production of a minor Shakespeare play… far superior to other productions of (Love’s Labour’s Lost) that I have seen.
-Kimberly Moy, BroadwayWorld.com‘Love’s Labour’s Lost’ is at times laugh out loud funny. There are so many scenes that I wish I could see again.
