Love's Labor's Lost
by Rosedale Shakespeare
Oct. 17 - Nov. 02, 2019
Thursdays-Saturdays
This fall, Rosedale Shakespeare will be producing Love's Labour's Lost! This quirky, language-obsessed comedy portrays what happens when a resolution that seemed like a good idea at the time collides with a blossoming youthful infatuation. The play remixes the classic Shakespearean comic elements of love at first sight, mistaken identity, and hilarious eavesdropping. It also defies assumptions about gender and class that would have been common in Shakespeare's time. The play's women are stronger and smarter than the men, and the lower-class characters have far more sense than the higher-class ones. You'll enjoy chuckling at the bumbling of a country clown, but the noblemen's antics will make you question who the real buffoon is! Come join us in the colorful and lively court of Navarre.
